I missed yet another money-making investment: backing doctors who specialize in skin reduction surgery. The concept's been around for decades but with the dazzling success of GLP-1, there are thousands of people with extra, saggy, skin.
In fact, there used to be a TV reality series about doctors in Texas, I think it was, who did skin reductions for previously obese people. Biggest problem for those patients: health insurance refused to pay for the surgery, which is infinitely expensive, claiming the saggy stuff was not a health risk.
TV's inundated with commercials for weight-loss drugs, which never explain how somebody who lost 45 pounds now looks not just slim but covered in teenage-tight skin. Likewise the people, all genders apparently, who dropped 100 pounds.
