Well, Starbucks (overpriced garbage coffee) is something like 50 times more expensive than making coffee at home. If you work in an expensive city, pay $2000 for one room, good luck finding a room for $40. It is precisely the problem that you cannot opt out of the housing market, at least when you need a calm and safe environment to think. Even when you don't, it is probably illegal to set up a tent somewhere, and legal camping sites are pretty expensive and horrible, too.
