A short YouTube-style video claims that Starbucks intentionally increases caffeine levels in its drinks to foster customer dependence and boost lifetime customer value. The speaker enters a Starbucks, questions staff about caffeine content, and asserts that a venti has over four times the caffeine of a typical coffee, linking this to an average lifetime customer value of $14,000.

Apparently, Starbucks spikes your coffee to keep you addicted. Let's go find out. Entering the store, the place is full with Starbucks victims. I immediately confront the staff about how much caffeine is in their coffee. And they said, this is how Starbucks has an average lifetime customer value of $14,000. By spiking the caffeine levels in their drinks, they make you dependent on their coffee, which means that this venti, compared to your typical coffee, has over four times the caffeine.
