Isn't it interesting that you can get a decorative crystal ball for a couple of quid, but a 'healing' 'mystical' one the same size start at around 20...

Because they know people will pay for it. If I could get £20 for my games, I'd leap at the chance! Maybe I should make a "Mystical healing game"!?!

Many, many years ago, when my son was just a baby (so 18-19) a gypsy woman came to the door touting her wares and giving forecasts.

She tried everything to get my money, offering a number of future "facts" (none of which were at all accurate) and selling "lucky" beads for a fiver a piece - there were four or five that supposedly each corresponded to a certain benefit, eg money, health, love etc. I took one look at the beads and literally laughed out loud - they were the coloured glass beads you put into the bottom of fishtanks! You could get a whole bag (thousands) for less than a fiver!

I said thanks, but no thanks!

People will try anything to get your money - some honestly, most not so much. LOL

When I was with the ex wife, she used to go to them mumbo jumbo fortune reading thingys, she decided to hold one in our house so she got a few of the family round and some friends...

Anyway, this bloke rocked up and set up his fortune telling stall in the kitchen, so they went in one at a time, I noticed when they came out they had a little pebble thing... I was like "Here, whats that?"

One of the girls said it was a mystic pebble, which is supposed to protect them and all that other guff... I said "Really, how much is this bloke charging per person?", my sister Fiona piped up "£25 a reading"...

I was gobsmacked... Stunned... I churned the sums in my head, there was about 13 of them, rolling in at £25 a time for a 15 minute reading or so... Git was on £100 an hour!!! Not a bad nights work for the lad considering all he has to do is pop into B&Q for a bag of posh gravel once in a blue moon! :/

One of them moments when you realise your totally in the wrong game!
