What has 'foreigners' got to do with it?

[VocalNeal]

Make enough predictions and one of them will end up being accurate.

Do I need an appointment or will she already know I am coming ????

[VocalNeal]

Peter,

 

You seem to be confusing fortune telling with clairvoyance.  

 

 

????????????

[soalbundy]

Yes but I am still not a millionaire.

Strange occurrence once though, the missus insisted we get the car blessed at the temple, being used to obeying orders we did so. The monk blessing the car gave me a warning that a small accident would happen soon but nobody would be injured. That very morning I took the car to Honda's for a service, while driving on to their forecourt a security guard shut the sliding gate before I was fully through and dented the back wing.

[ezzra]

I did...

I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth
You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth
She's got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine
Selling little bottles of love potion number nine

I told her that I was a flop with chics
I've been this way since 1956
She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign
She said "What you need is love potion number nine"...

 Yep,,,'it will rain in the next 2 years'.

 

200Baht please.

 

A buddy's wife is obsessed with this stuff and with buying lottery tickets and with several totally ridiculous ideas about forecasting lucky lottery tickets.

E.g. a monk told her years ago (for a fee) that she should add together the day and month (10, 10 - 10 Oct) for every member of the family oldest first and it's a guaranteed lucky number. She's been doing this for years 1,000 to 5,000Baht a month, never won 1Baht, and she's now frightened to stop because another monk told her (for a fee) if she stops serious bad luck will fall on the family with many bad accidents and many deaths. Now to cap that she refuses to go within 200Kms of the temple where the monk told her about bad luck if she stops buying tickets because another monk (for a fee) told her she has personal bad karma for that geographical location. So she now visits the temple of the last monk 2 or 3 times a week to make tambon to develop good karma.

 

Another one - she calls the last monk on his mobile phone after she and hubby and kids are all in the car ready to go to the supermarket for the big monthly shop up (30kms there and 30 back) just before the car moves to check if today is a good karma day for her. And it has happened the monk says NO, so trip / shopping cancelled, try again 2 days later and the car has to washed twice a day to ward off bad karma .

For farangs here the prediction is always "I predict that you will lose your fortune", and it's usually right.

[BestB]

Have tried it, she was spot on on 2 occasions but wrong on the third. However third occasion is not 100% over yet, so could still come true but with a delay 

[Somtamnication]

Yes, and I saved a fortune by not going to them!

[simon43]

My Thai FIL is a 'small bit' fortune-teller.  He especially would read the palms of bar-girls and get a hundred baht each time.

 

That got me thinking. (This was yonks ago).  Whenever I was in a beer bar, I would scrutinize the palm of a pretty girl.

 

"Wow, are you a 'Mor Doo?' " was always the question.

 

I would modestly reply in the affirmative and would intently stare at the lines on their hands and start talking about handsome boyfriends, fast cars and gold.  The girl would fall for this every time and I'd offer to read their palm for a small 'favour'!! ????

 

It worked every time....

[VocalNeal]

As a lad the older guys in the garage would stare at my girlfriends face and ask if she was still a virgin. Apparently they reckoned they could tell just by looking.

 Yep,,,'it will rain in the next 2 years'.
 
200Baht please.

Sounds like these two monks are working together.

ROFLMAO

[IssanMichael]

I went to one years ago, as soon as i sat down she started laughing most of the time, so i smacked her across the face.

 

I was always told it was good to strike a happy medium.

[Kurtf]

My advice is: Don’t waste your money. My Thai wife has gone to three different ones and paid significant amounts of money and NONE of their predictions have come true.

[Mick501]

I predict in the near future you will lose a small amount of money.

 

  Please pay invoice of 2000B consultation fee.

I suspect that, that Site is now selling your details it got from your computer for entering the Site. Good Luck with your Bank Accounts my friend.
