Would You Turn to a Psychic For Money or Career Advice?

November 24, 2008

Business has never been better for psychics. Men and women are turning to them for cosmic advice about what to do in this chaotic economy, hoping they will get answers to help make sense of the things out of their control. The New York Times interviewed a number of psychics who indicated their clients' questions have shifted along with the economy.

Rather than seeking guidance on relationships, people want insight into job interviews and their struggling businesses. One psychic said, “In this day and age, a spiritual guide is an everyday therapist — that’s what the business has become."

Nope. I follow my own intuition. :)

I agree with everyone else: save the money instead.

I have my own Tarot deck with instructions book. I don't need no psychs when I can fool myself with that. Besides, my deck is really pretty.

I only just recently found out that many of my mother's friends (all female and all business owners), visit psychics regularly and even more so now that the crisis is on. If it gives them reassurance it's fine with me but as for myself I think it's a lot of bs and a waste of money that could be spend on much more important things, especially when it's tight.

No. Things like this are like the lottery, or gambling. Do them for fun, not out of need.

"Psychics" are such a scam. What are they going to tell you..."the economy is slow, you need to get a job in healthcare or teaching. I can see you'd make a really good teacher." Or something stupid and ridiculous like that. I can't believe people are buying into this crap. Save your money, people!

Seems like a huge waste of money.

Lmao! Considering that it involves spending money, no. At the very least, it's advised to only do it for fun, anyway.

i'm all for finding a financial adviser or someone who has credentials to help me, but in these times when i'm strapped for cash, i'm not about to go to a psychic to see if they can tell my future on these things.
