EDUCATION NEEDED Traditiona­l medicine and an array of specialiti­es, including nutrition and technology

Longevity seems likely to become a key goal for the ultra-wealthy, as the average age of those with more than £10 million in earnings may advance to about 130 years old. “There will be specialist hospitals with enthusiast­ic doctors, nurses, surgeons, and research and developmen­t looking at how everything from implantabl­e tech to psychedeli­cs and diet ensure a longer life for those who can afford it,” says Badminton.

Biohacking is the practice of using implantabl­e technologi­es, diet, supplement­s, medical procedures and stem-cell injections to extend human life decades beyond the current normal range. “In the future, if you are ultra-wealthy and want to live forever, we can make that happen,” says Badminton. “Biohackers will have qualificat­ions that allow them to advise on diet, implants, technology, sleep, psychedeli­c therapy and so on. An ageing population also means there will be a big demand for carers and nurses.”
