Ask me about being a professional psychic

[wildzer0]

So for the last couple of months I've been working as a professional psychic. I'm not a complete expert, but I've done around 800 readings, and I've put a lot of study and research into it so I think I'm qualified to write an "ask me" thread.

So, ask me about being a professional psychic!

And, because I'm sure this'll come up pretty quickly, I am an avowed skeptic and atheist.

How much do you charge for a reading?

Do you tell people how your readings are fake?

[Klompy]

Can I get a free reading?

What am I holding in my left hand? Hint, it rhymes with penis.

I am part one of those big networks, I charge $1.99/minute and about $1.35 of that goes into my pocket.

What kind of training/studying did you have to do to become a part of the network you work for? In other words, what kind of qualifications do you have to have and how did you get them?

I dunno, I'm not psychic.

There are no qualifications, the system is ratings based though and if I sucked, I would be quickly downgraded (get fewer clients) or kicked off altogether. It's not a bad system. I studied some articles and read a couple of psychology books. One on cold reading as a science, and the other on stages of adult life.

How long are you able to keep people on the phone, on average? Is that better/worse than average for phone psychics in general?
