Chapter 1: What is the main topic of this episode?
Young people are flocking to the apps seeking not love, but the opposite of love, an accountant. And if you happen to be an accountant or tax expert and your hinge date just showed up with a shoebox full of receipts, she may not want you for your body. Ooh, you look so taxi.
I think boys are an incredible resource, and if you're using dating for anything other than to learn information, then you're missing part of the point. They can be so helpful. I just broke up with someone before we enter a recession. Do you know how many questions I'm going to have to send to my dad instead? That's such a bummer.
You think boys are a good source of information?
I think they're incredible.
Girl, we know different boys.
This information, the survey was from the dating app Hilly, which asked more than 2,000 users if they would look for a date who could help with their taxes. A third of them said yes. Also, another third, I guess not the same third, said they find people who do their own taxes sexier. than people who hire an accountant, right? It's a little bit of a contradiction.
So if you're on a date this weekend, the right thing to say is, well, I do my own taxes, of course, and I'd be happy to do yours, but you're too beautiful to need that.
People who do their own taxes are also sexier because they're probably in a lot of trouble with the law, which is always hot. If you're on the run, that is so... You're on the run.
Wait a minute, wait a minute. I know that bad boys have always had an appeal to women. But you're telling me that a bad boy is someone who does his own taxes and might not have all the receipts?

I love Providence. It's an Italian town going way back. Are you like one of those long-term Providence Italian families?
No, I'm only half Italian, so I spent half my life in westerly Rhode Island and the other half in Providence.
Westerly Rhode Island and Providence are four miles apart. You could walk from one to the other.
Easy to split my time, yes, exactly.
