12:45 pm at a Starbucks in Shenzhen China is a scene hard to believe, here in the land of the “tea” hundreds line up to get a cup of coffee at around 25 rmb (4 US$) . The logical conclusion is that everybody likes to feel “cool” , is not the coffee, it is the status and the opportunity to look different amongst millions who just have the same 4 US$ to have a decent lunch.

Good thing: Hundreds of people get the chance to feel good and have a nice break from the daily routine.

Bad thing: The gap between middle and and low class gets bigger and someday it might blow on people’s faces.

Not good not bad: In 2 years perhaps we will drink coffee at a regular chinese restaurant.
