Let's make this birthday one to remember.

71 years old (Born on July 19, 1953)

Happy Birthday, Howard Schultz! You're the man who turned coffee from a sleepy morning ritual into an essential daily adventure. Thanks to you, ordering coffee now requires fluency in Italian and advanced decision-making skills—grande or venti? Latte or macchiato?

Your vision didn't just build Starbucks; it brewed up communities worldwide where people gather over cups of comfort (and free Wi-Fi). From Seattle's Pike Place Market to global domination one latte at a time—you've truly caffeinated our lives.

Here's wishing your birthday is as bold and satisfying as your best espresso shot. Cheers to another year brewing greatness!
