She must be accurate, she's been there for 2 or more years.

I've never been there, but I have read someone posted in CEO. She can earn money by her job like this in Cambodia. Yes many Cambodians people believe it, but maybe they have to bring a translator ?

I was surprised when i saw the news about fortune teller who predicted about what happened in the world. They compared what she said with what have happened.

Brw I don't really believe in them because they always say differently. But I wonder if you believe in Zodiac horoscope ? I read an article about my birthday Zodiac which describes about character is right 80%.

No, I don't believe in this nonsense. People need to get real and stop wasting time and money on superstitious BS.

Well, I've run out of animals and will have to dig deep into the pockets of local magic. Here is an item that will protect you from evil spirits, thieves and even dengue fever. Place this at the entrance to your hotel and you can raise the rates. Firearm not included.

Sometimes the fortune tellers can be quite right . Several months ago I was walking along riverside with my sister-in-laws 21 year old sister . She stopped by a fortune teller, so I paid , I think it was about 10,000 r. I don't know what the result was , as she does not speak English.

Several days later at home the subject came up and I asked the brother-in -law who speaks good English, what was the outcome of her fortune teller. And this is what I was told.
She will meet a handsome barang but he is not a good man for her to marry.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Has anyone ever had a fortune-teller tell them that "you are going to have a shit life, and you will die alone, unloved and penniless" ? :stir:

Adolf Hitler, Nancy Reagan and Princess Diana were all believers in the supernatural and in fortune-telling, to various degrees.

As was (are?) the military ninnies-in-uniform running Burma.

The chief martial law boo-hoo in uniform in Thailand has accused the opposition of using black magic to undermine the junta government

The wartime Youkay government put various occultists like Dennis Wheatley on the Youkay government payroll to read the stars and thus
indicate what advice Hitler was getting from the astrologers.

Ducan, you don't have a wife but why do you have many sister in law? Do you have a lot of brothers?
Btw I might believe in superstition. When I break something, there will be a thing happen. And one more thing i noticed since i was 17 years old, it seems I've sixth sense because my dream always tells me about what will happend.
It might be the special things, but I don't like them at all.
