Respectful but firm "facepunches" with a charming French accent

[Moustachienne]

For anyone with nostalgia for the bracing "facepunches" delivered to foolish spenders by classic MMM, check out Romain Faure's youtube channel Finance Action - https://www.youtube.com/@itsRomainFaure

He analyses the financial situation of his guests and recommends a plan of action for them. Brief updates at end of each video and some more detailed update videos. These folks aren't working towards FI or RE, they're in deep sh*t financially and Romain doesn't pull punches in his recommendations. Good lessons in every video about avoiding credit card debt, not touching retirement funds, understanding what running a car costs, changing the mentality about saving and spending, etc. Old news to folks on this forum but clearly new news to many people.

My heart almost stopped watching 67 year old Catherine and Antonio - well, Antonio has to be seen to be believed.
