Fast food is now a luxury that it's typical customers can no longer afford and we know this for a fact because McDonald's and Starbucks are seeing their quarterly earnings drop substantially even while offering five dollar meal deals to get people back in the store. The recession is here.

During Seattle's busiest tourism season, coffee giant Starbucks abruptly closed the doors to its 1st and Pike location. Just blocks away from the Pike Place Market, this Starbucks location is jam-packed. Starbucks would not confirm why they closed the store but said it was temporary despite any plans to re-open the storefront. Starbucks spokesperson Sam Jefferies would not confirm if the closure was due to safety concerns. Thursday afternoon, the Starbucks signs had been removed, and the windows were covered. The 1st and Pike closure comes just weeks after Starbucks announced they would permanently close its Alki location.

Coffee is now a luxury, just confirm my fears. I knew a recession was coming that would last 2-3 years, and if inflation continues to surge, the Federal Reserve will likely raise interest rates soon. Inflation is causing various issues worldwide, such as food shortages, scarcities of diesel and heating fuel, and significant spikes in housing prices, leading to a potential financial market crash. This global downturn could have long-lasting repercussions. Given the current inflation rate of approximately 9%, my main worry is how to optimize my savings and retirement fund, which has remained stagnant at around $300,000, yielding almost no gains for quite some time.

Numerous opportunities exist to achieve substantial profits at present, but executing high-volume and nearly flawless trades requires the expertise of real-time professionals with an ISDA Agreement. This agreement allows investors to participate in sophisticated trades, exclusive to seasoned individuals, and unavailable to amateurs. Attempting to be a high-stakes trader without an ISDA is akin to trying to win the Indy 500 riding a llama.

No sympathy for Starbucks at all. In the UK they paid absolutely no business tax between 2009 and 2013, despite making about £95m profit a year, cooked the books to make it appear they were making no money. I boycotted them in 2013 when the news broke and haven’t given them a penny since. Will never buy a Starbucks for the rest of my natural born life.

Took my 16-year-old to McDonald’s the other day. It was $17. $17 for a sandwich, a large fry, and a medium drink. I told him no more. I’d rather take him out to a restaurant, sit down with a real server serving you and he could get a meal for less than $15 and we could both enjoy it. Going out to a restaurant is an experience, I can’t just see handing over almost $20 for one stupid meal to McDonald’s anymore. It’s not that I can’t afford it. I just choose to put my money elsewhere but I think about those families with young kids, and several of them and mom and dad struggling to get by. How the heck are they supposed to afford it ? When my kids were little, I remember the dollar menu and if we were in a rush, I would take them and get a four piece nugget for a dollar and a small fry for a dollar. I feel bad for families nowadays that can’t afford it. 😪 honestly, the demise of McDonald’s would not be a terrible thing. We all know it’s highly processed, high sodium, deep fried food that is terrible for your health.

I recall as a kid in the 1970’s my parents saying that “eating out was for rich people.” They cooked every day. My sisters and I were taught to cook for ourselves around age 7 or so. Not kidding here, I never went to a sit down restaurant until after I graduated high school in late 80’s. I also never had a “real” haircut until after high school when I was on my own. My sister cut my hair when I was growing up for free. We never went to any restaurants when I was a kid. My parents were not broke, but both grew up dirt poor. All they did was save money. They never bought a new car in their entire lives. My Dad built the house we grew up in, so they never had a mortgage. It’s crazy seeing how average people blow money on such senseless things as fast food and expensive coffee.

When I left they had two morning people, one being a manager, and four and a manager for afternoon and evenings closing early at 10. Every year our boss got a wage hike, Managers got a small raise and workers got Nada. When things got rough they even let go of older workers at a higher rate and hired younger people. I had a rate cut in 2008 and never got that back. When healthcare was imposed they cut hours and no worker could work over the 28-30 hrs. Yet every year the prices went up and my boss got BONUSES!!

According to federal securities filings, McDonald's CEO and chairman Chris Kempczinski's total compensation in 2023 was $1.4 million in salary, plus over $4 million in bonuses, about $13 million in stock and option awards, and around $700,000 in other compensation. This other compensation includes life insurance, retirement plan contributions, and use of the corporate jet. Kempczinski's total compensation in 2023 was an 8% increase from 2022, but slightly less than his 2021 compensation of around $20 million. In 2022, Kempczinski's compensation was equivalent to a typical McDonald's worker working for more than 1,200 years, or 344 times the average pay of a typical worker at one of the largest 350 publicly-owned firms in the U.S.. And...the stock market is at an all time high because of record earnings...hmmm...poor McDonald's and Starbucks. This is what it will take to stop the price gouging.

Realized real time inflation I stopped going to McDonald’s when they stopped the $1 breakfast sandwich moved To Dunkin I use to get a medium coffee and croissant for $7 they’ve up their prices now to $12 in less than month . Dropped both like a hot rock .

Food and tipping are out of hand. People can't afford it anymore. Keeping a roof over your head is a struggle.

We have had fast food a total of 6 times in the past 7 years. Before that we had it all the time. Once you break loose from it, it really kind of makes you feel ill just thinking about it.
