I have to agree too that there are a lot of phony psychics out there who charge a crazy amount. But I have to be the devil's advocate for a moment. Unfortunately, because there are so many phonies out there who just want to take your money, the good true psychics are given a bad name because of it. If someone had a bad experience with a phony, then they would say "oh they are all bad" and the good ones are hurt too because of this. But as far as the good true ones charging for their service, that isnt so bad. Its their time, and they have the right to charge BUT here is where the ethics take place. The unethical phony psychics know how to trap people buy getting them in their own ways to come back again and again, just so they get money and thats it. The next thing you know the person has been not only scammed but is in debt. That is beyond wrong. The ethical psychics should make a rule for people who go to them that they wont do a reading for them for more than once a month or once every 6 or 8 weeks or something and not to charge a crazy amount either so they show both that their time IS valuable AND they are not there to trap, just help. And the ones who are true and caring could email the person every now and then to see how things are. Thats my humble opionion And if a psychic were to not make themselves sound strangely amazing, and to put that guideline in their description, then that may give off a good vibe for people. What do you think?

well, i would only say this much... there are crooks and then some. but losing faith in the whole system is not an answer. just my two cents.

thats what i am saying too. psychics may b there for sure ..and that too gud ones.. but there r so many phonyones that the true ones have been overshadowed. so u dont know whom to trust and whom not to. we r not talkng here about losing faith in the whole system.

Rip I agree with ya. I feel like once money enters the picture creditablity often leaves it. A gift like this is given to you to help your fellow man/woman not to make money off of them. This is what I believe here.

i'll differ from you on this point. why cant someone charge and still be good? what i think you mean is that it becomes bad if the person turns greedy and wants more and more and stop bothering about quality or takeing someone for a ride.

any and all skills is a gift if you ask me - be it engineering or painting or building space carft and everything in between. it's almost like saying like engineering is gift beucase it has what has helped the world build bridges and dams and road and computers... and engineer should stop asking for money.

i think it's the *greed* factor and unethical practices thats in question... and not about ethical people with ethical pratice charging you for it.

i hope you understand what i mean.
