I can't view the link because it's behind a login wall, but the first thing that comes to mind is that GLP-1 drugs aren't covered by most insurance plans and cost several hundred dollars/month out-of-pocket.

so unless I see otherwise, I'm going to assume this is finding "being employed is highly correlated with having $500/mo in disposable income"

OK, these effect sizes are huge. That and the drama of the findings provokes general skepticism. So I welcome some experienced folks picking this apart.

>Single women’s marriage/cohabitation rates rise by 29 percentage points and employment among baseline nonemployed women rises 27 percentage points after six or more quarters.
