Oohh...,tough choice!Free coffee for life sounds amazing!!Im already addicted!!☕But $20,000 could pay off a Lot of that addiction.🤔Maybe I will invest it in a lifetime supply of ethically sourced,single origin beans?Then I still have free coffee for life,right?!??Here is my caffein companion;

Thank you 😍

I think you were presented with the same dilemma as I was: even hypothetically, whichever way you look at it, it's a very difficult decision to make. I think I have a new topic to think about during my sleepless nights.

Very smart choice, an investment in coffee. In this capitalist world, money can buy almost everything, so money can buy the craving for coffee. Haha. ☕

I leave you a delicious cup of coffee for this day.☕

I will choose $20,000.00, Because this amount is 1,160.000.00 peso worth in Philippines is a huge amount and can make a lot of things, like I have 10Hectares land in Philippines somewhere in Davao, what I do if have this amount of money, I can plant a coffee tree's in the land and we can have free coffee not only my family also the Neiborhood. and the coffee plantation its also can make profits not just free coffee for whole life. when I read this Challege I exited to share my thoughts about this question.

A good mindset. Investing to coffee plantation is great. Sharing to the neighborhood is a gesture of gratitude. It's a sign of giving back and creating wealth😍

actually, in Davao my grandparents already have coffee trees for own use, then our neighborhood used to come and ask for coffee we also have cocoa trees until today and all our neighbor they just take for free. all people staying there they share for what they have if they veggies or fish in their farm they will share when they harvest. its normal action for us as we staying in the simple and very humble community.

Your free coffee will require a lot of additional work, but after all it will definitely worth it. Growing your own coffee… brilliant!

Yes, and I can give Free coffee for the workers in the plantation and also the have a work for they're family. anyway thank you for appreciating

Ant this is a very generous act! Wish you luck with your dream. Maybe one day you will have the means and make all this happen!

Yes, all this is my dreamed that's why I bought land in Philippines last 2020, but for now I have no fund to continue the project hopping for someday it will happen. thank you for wishing a good luck.

anyway your so generous my friend sir, thank you for putting upvote to my reply to you, I' am so glad to know you here.

Its my pleasure to join the coffee conversation, beside of being so fun to have this kind of conversation sharing is more meaningful for me.

Beautifully illustrates the power of imagining the possibilities that even a relatively modest sum of money can unlock.

You have a business vision on how to use money and not lose the coffee supply. A very good answer to the question of the week.

A cup of coffee is leaving for the Philippines.☕

While I think about the possibility of drinking free coffee for the rest of my life I have this delicious cup of coffee. What could be better than that for persuading myself about that as the best option? .I really drink abundant coffee and just thinking about getting it for free at any time, sounds tempting. I have another sip and I make my decision" COFFEE FOR FREE" I am very exited to know about your decisions. I'l read you in your comments.

This post resonates with anyone who appreciates a good cup of coffee.The simple pleasure of enjoying a beverage is elevated to a larger consideration of longterm choices.

While sipping my coffee, I thought about it, and in my case, I would choose the $20,000 in cash.

Reasons:

I make it a point to work at places where I can drink free coffee (bonus points if there’s a barista).
With the interest earned on the cash, I can buy coffee and related goods.
I limit myself to two cups a day, so the cost of coffee isn’t much of a concern.

Really two cups a day is little.Now I understand your choice

You came to the exact same idea that I thought of. Extremely witty to put your cash somewhere where an interest would be generated and then enjoy free coffee again. And if you have some spare in the end of the month you will have some additional bucks to boost your interest!

I appreciate the unique perspective offered in this response.By highlighting the already existing access to free coffee,the writer cleverly reframes the challenge and focuses on the longterm financial benefits of the cash option.This demonstrates creative problem solving and a practical approach to decision making.

A coffee business where, in addition to making money, you can also drink free coffee is a very good idea. A business idea tailored to the passion for coffee.

A cup of coffee is coming out for you this Sunday.☕

It really depends… If I will get only low grade free coffee, then I will take the money of course! It will buy a lot of good quality coffee! Or maybe put it somewhere where I will get a good interest on it. For instance HBD savings which will generate me 15% interest per year (or actually a little bit more). This means that I will receive roughly $3000 per year or $250 per month. This sounds like an infinite free coffee! 😁

So I’ve decided! Give me the money, please!

A well structured and persuasive argument for choosing the cash option.The clear calculation of potential investment returns,combined with the stated preference for high quality coffee,makes for a compelling and logical response.The concluding analogy effectively summarizes the longterm benefits.

@mdosev It's great to see you turn up!😁

I like your reasoning behind this. Makes so much sense:)

An infinite free coffee sounds very good jj

Free coffee sounds great, but if I had to choose between having coffee for the rest of my life or $20,000, I would definitely choose the money. Why? Because if we convert that into our currency, it would be a huge amount to over 1 million Philippine peso. It could even be use to start a business, specifically a coffee-related one. If you know how to manage the money and run a business, you could eventually afford to buy different kinds of coffee of your choice.
So, why settle for coffee alone when you can have the money and the freedom to buy your own coffee?

I like your entrepreneurial way of thinking. That makes sense!

Man, that's such a great question!

Hello, dear friends of happy Sunday coffees!
I respond to the topic of conversation knowing full well that I'm a marvel at drinking coffee and a disaster at doing the math! Hahaha...! $20,000! Wow, I can think of so many things to do with that money, it would make my life so much more caffeinated and make my coffees, of course, happier!

In my country that's a lot of money. You could buy a house and even set up a small café. However, if I may dream, I would keep the money and buy a small plot of land with a few coffee trees to have my own private coffee production. I would buy all the paraphernalia that allows you to process your own beans and make really special, tailor-made coffees.
But since I don't have much confidence in my financial judgement, so I would probably end up accepting the security of infinite coffee, as that would guarantee me a long and happier life (every time I drink coffee I feel that my life is getting longer).

By the way, today I am usurping my husband's mug, his precious surviving jam jar. I drink black coffee at my desk because I have a lot of work to get ahead of today..... ¡¡¡¡I wish I had $20,000!!!!!

Hello!...Hoping everyone here having a great day! While taking my late lunch with my best choice cold coffee latte from my hectic schedule today. And I decided to visit my account on HIVE.BLOG while spending my time eating my lunch and I navigated some communities and I saw this pinned post and I read it and it pushed me to drop my comment in your comment sections. And I was so amazed your question choosing a free coffee for the rest of our life or a cash worth $20,000. In my own perspective, Wow! Your question is so enticing for the coffee lovers. If I will be given a chance to choose which one, would it be? I will be choosing money worth $ 20,000 even though I love coffee so much. Why I’m choosing cash? It simply because this kind of amount when you change it into our currency it’s a big quantity of number. And it helps a lot, not only for myself but also for my family as well. Especially me and my daughter facing and fighting for our health issue. And aside from that, the rest i will invest it and it can start a small business-like grocery store, a small coffee shop or we buy it a small cut of land area to make it a coffee farm or a cacao farm in our province for source of income in the future. That’s all. And here’s my COFFEE LATTE BUDDY ENTRY that good to awake my sleepy afternoon head… Thank you for reading my simple reflection…

It's my pleasure @cinnccf to be here in your community. Looking forward to do more blogging here...

I'll choose the $20,000, that's a lot of money where i can also secure lifetime supply of a good coffee. That's a win-win situation😃. And I can invest for my son's Drip Coffee business.
