Saving Strategies & Behavioral Hacks She emphasized that saving is possible at any age, but requires commitment and planning. A key strategy: Save at least half of every raise to prevent lifestyle inflation. Emergency Funds & Smart Spending Lester advised building an emergency fund of 3-6 months’ expenses before investing. She outlined three questions to ask before tapping into emergency savings: Is this truly an emergency? Do I absolutely need to spend this money? Do I need to spend it right now? Subscription Detox & Hidden Expenses Many people unknowingly overspend on subscriptions, leading to financial waste. Lester recommended avoiding auto-renewals, using a credit card with an upcoming expiration date, and rotating streaming services to cut costs. Investing vs. Traditional Savings She clarified that long-term savings should be invested, not kept in low-interest accounts. Retirement funds should be diversified across stocks and bonds for growth. 📘 About Anne LesterAnne Lester is a financial strategist, speaker, and author, known for her expertise in retirement planning and behavioral finance.
