The claim is Luxon “avoided” $70k in tax by timing the sale. However, the figure is significantly wrong as it is based on the gross sale price, not the taxable “income” generated. It does not account for significant and deductible costs for acquisition, holding and selling. https://www.ird.govt.nz/-/media/project/ir/home/documents/forms-and-guides/ir800---ir899/ir833/ir833-2021.pdf?modified=20210611004839&modified=20210611004839

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1841012635200078110
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
