My mom is dating a guy way younger than her (15 years younger) I'm worried she's making a huge mistake. What should I do?

My mom is dating a guy way younger than her (15 years younger) Im worried shes making a huge mistake. What should I do?
I recently found out my mom has been dating a guy WAY younger than her (she’s 40 and he’s 25). They’ve been dating for about 3 months, but my mom only recently really told me and my sister about him. We’ve talked to him a couple of times, but mom feels really strongly we shouldn’t have any significant relationship with him right now (so I know him, but not really).

With that being said I’m actually pretty worried about my mom. Firstly, the guy is just too young for her. I know age gap relationships can work, but 15 years is a bit much. I also know that the relationship isn’t just a fling. My mom is way too busy for a fling, I know she’s only interested in dating if she thinks it’ll go somewhere, they spend a ton of time together when my sister and I are with our dad (which is half the time), and I know that in her heart my mom is a hopeless romantic looking for her ‘the one’. I just don’t see how a guy so much younger than her could be her ‘one’. They’re in way too different of places in life. Moreover, I know my mom is very much looking for commitment and I just don’t think a 25 year old guy is going to be committed to a 40 year old woman (especially in the long term). I’m a little worried he could be after her money (although she is a hair stylist so she doesn’t make a ton. Also, he’s a grad student in computer science so he probably will make more. However, for the time being he does make a lot less than her). With that being said I can tell my mom is just head over heals for this guy. That really bothers me because I really don’t want to see my mom’s heart get broken again. I’m worried this is a mid-life crisis thing. Also, I know she does want 2 more kids (if possible) and I think she might think she’d be more likely to have them with a younger guy (I don’t know, but it’s possible). He’s also pretty hot (and has a great body), and she might be letting that get in the way of her thinking clearly (a little more to read)

I know she’s got her own life, but I don’t think I’m out of place in being concerned about my mom. Does it sound like my mom is making a mistake? Why/why not? If so should I do anything about it right now? If so what should I do?
