I Asked My Tinder Matches If They're Worried About the Rise of Right-Wing Populism

And about the worst financial decision they've ever made.

It's the World Economic Forum this week, an annual event attended by the planet's financial, political and business elites – and, this year, Shakira and Matt Damon – who all gather for a big chat about the state of the world and how we can work together to make it better. This year a top theme of conversation is the rise of right-wing populism, a la Donald Trump, Nigel Farage and Marine Le Pen, and how a deflated global economy could lead to more of the same.

With this in mind, I swiped through Tinder and asked my matches if they're worried about being subjected to more of the same, and – because, you know, The Economy – about the worst financial decision they've ever made.
