I am not giving any investment advice here.
I was just interested by the point raised by James Altucher in Cash in on people's need to look good (FT) that amongst the a number of women in the 45-55 range (and some men I am sure) get treatment for varicose veins.
He mentions companies that benefit from this need.
I would add to his take that these bad veins are painful besides being a not so pretty sight.
My mother had surgery to deal with it so I know firsthand.
