"A Manhattan Fortuneteller Cost Him Fortune After Fortune"

When I lived in St.Louis in the 1980's, Fortunetellers were banned from the city limits. You could see their little shops about then feet outside the city borders.
I like to play a game with them which I got from reading Aleister Crowley, of all people. I walk in, sit down and look at them. They ask me: "What are you here for?" I say: "Guess you're no good or you would know" and walk out.

Serves him right for being an idiot.

Ill be right back. Reading Kwizsats tarot game thread.

I liked Jariel's thread title better. This fortuneteller must be a CIA front for MKUltra. I really, really think mind control must be involved or some shit. How does this poor fuck get that much money in the first place to be parted so easily from it? Such a lame con.

Quote:He had lost his apartment. He had had enough and returned to New York. He sought out Mr. Nygaard, and they went to the police in May. Bank statements were given to detectives: He was out $713,975.

Ms. Delmaro and her companion, Bobby Evans, 27, were arrested on May 26 in a restaurant in Midtown Manhattan. A steakhouse. They were charged with grand larceny and remain in jail.

Their lawyer, Jeffrey Cylkowski, denied the man’s allegations.

The man recalled his disappointment upon meeting the new Michelle. “This caused me to start thinking,” he wrote, “that Delmaro wasn’t everything she was purporting to be.”

So he actually spent over 700.000$ on a fortune teller? I know guys who spend over 1 million on hookers and strippers (and could not actually afford it long-term), but at least they got more out of it.

A book like Rational Male and Game knowledge would have helped that guy.

He fell in love with a drug addict and a woman who rode the carousel. She died within a year of a drug overdose while he was still paying for a re-unification. She was likely fucked by multiple guys in the mean time. He even paid for a "reincarnated" spirit of his girlfriend - most likely a hooker that the fortune teller set up.

The fortune teller overdid it. That broad is stupid as a block of wood if she believes that she can get away with it. She will pay 200.000$ in legal costs and still end up in jail.

I really don't understand why the fortune teller is being sued. Why does the government have this idea that it absolutely MUST protect the fools who do the most foolish things?

It reminds me of an old programming joke: "Programmers are in a neverending race with the universe to create increasingly stupid-proof software as the universe creates increasingly dumber people. Unfortunately, the universe is winning."

Never listen to a woman's advice regarding game whether she is in a matriarchal apron, a pant-suit making her look like an effeminate schoolboy or in hocuspocus gypsy garb.

Quote:When that didn’t work, Ms. Delmaro said she needed a time machine to go back and cleanse his past. When the man balked, she said a suitable watch would do the job, and gave him a list of choices. He said he selected one of the cheaper ones: a rose gold Rolex for $30,000.

That has got to be the funniest thing I've read today. Technically you could say that a Rolex literally a time machine. They usually go forwards though but I guess if you're paying $30,000....

One thing I don't understand is how a guy that gullible managed to have $700,000 sitting in his bank account. Also I don't see how what she did is any different to the day to day running of a psychic business, the only difference is the scale.

Don't get me wrong guy is an idiot but in the article the fortune teller promised to give him the money back(which she didn't) so he can argue that that was fraud.

This story should be circulated around the manosphere for lulz and as a anti-simping PSA.

I wonder how someone that stupid can earn that much money on the other hand. But well to be brilliant in your career or with a company doesn't mean that you have common sense in general.

Remembers me on those stories that fraud tell, I'm often surprised with what nonsense stories they can rip off people. When people get greedy or in this case thirsty they will go crazy.

Had me laughing with the part about him balking at the time machine. That was the point when the fortune teller chick was like, "Shite, went too far! On to Plan B - funding a bridge build in another realm is much more believable."

I agree this guy doesn't deserve his money back. Dumb ass. If you're going to give your money away, don't be surprised if people are willing to take it.

And what the hell - he makes that kind of money in marketing? How do you have a solid career like that in marketing and not see right through this? His boss must just love giving money away too.

Must be a lot of hustlers just coasting through life in Manhattan.

A good gym membership is $30/month, and Roosh's "Bang" is what, $20 or less? This forum is free and there are tons of great resources online, free. I don't know what business this guy is in, but he sure doesn't fucking understand ROI.

My time machine was expensive, but it's broken. It only goes forward in time, and at regular speed.

When I saw this on my feed I simply shook my head and went my own way. I couldn't read this as I know it would be facepalm after facepalm, like the jokes would write by themselves.

I agree with ryanf, not to mention if someone couldn't afford a gym they could walk, or push ups, etc.

He must be a trustfund baby + some other psychological issues.

If he had earned every penny of his money, he won't easily throw it away like that.

A fool and his money are soon parted.
