#431: The title says it all. Paula Pant interviews Mr. Money Mustache about his dating life.\nWe chat about why he wants to date inside the FIRE community (financial independence, retire early) \u2013 and whether he\u2019s had any luck.\nWe discuss the perils of navigating into the dating world after a divorce, which he did at age 43.\nAnd \u2013 AHEM \u2013 HE\u2019S ON THE APPS. Well, specifically, he\u2019s on one app. And it\u2019s technically not an app, it\u2019s a website. Whatever. HE\u2019S ONLINE DATING, FOLKS. We talk about the difference between flirting in real life vs. online, and he talks about what he looks for in a dating profile.\nOur conversation also covers:\n\nWhat\u2019s the point of dating someone inside the FIRE community, anyway? Do you really want to talk about money all day? (Hint: nope)\n\nIs he a serial monogamist?\n\nWhat should you do if one person is more interested in frugality, while the other is into investing?\n\nPersonality, values, communication, chemistry \u2026 how can you find that ideal fit?\n\nHow long does it take to figure out if you\u2019re compatible?\n\nHow quickly has he introduced his teenage son to his former (then-current) girlfriends?\n\nWhat advice does he share with his son about dating?\n\n\nMr. Money Mustache is the pseudonym of Pete Adeney, one of the most prominent figures in the FIRE movement. He co-stars with Paula, Tiffany Aliche and Ross Mac in the 2022 Netflix documentary Get Smart with Money.\nEnjoy!\nFor more information, visit the show notes at https://affordanything.com/episode431\nThe Fire Dating app can be found at https://firedating.me\nLearn more about your ad choices.
