The Lux Strategist
@theluxestrategist
The Lux Strategist is a savvy New Yorker who clearly spends based on what she values. Her tag line on Twitter is “I save half my income and buy $400 shoes,” so she is all about quality over quantity. If you care about strategic financial planning, being responsible and forward-thinking with your savings and investments, but also, if you like nice things The Luxe Strategist is the perfect platform for you. The idea is to check-off all your goals and obligations first (max out tax-advantaged accounts, put X% into taxable, put X% into a HYSA…), and then go enjoy your $400 shoes! (And hopefully ones you find on consignment for 60%+ off!)
