I drink coffee every single day but for several years I refused to make it at home. Instead I'd visit a coffee shop at minimum once per day. This was to have more social interaction (I was quite shy and had few coworkers), and the chance to say thank you to at least one person a day.

I have met a hundred people this way, by simply going to a cafe every day until the people became familiar, and this includes my wife (and the shop owners, the mayor, roommates, a sculptor, enough friends to make a liquor tasting group, etc).

Interactions with other people have to be more deliberate. It's harder than ever to bump into people. It won't happen by accident, you have to do it. It is worth spending lots of time and a little money to be more social.

Assuming you bought at least a cup of coffee each visit and average cup costs 3$ thats $1095 per year spent. Do you still go everyday? I guess it’s worth it
