There is a Psychic and Tarot card place in my town that I never see anyone going in or out of but always has at least two or three high end sports cars in the parking lot. Something is paying for those cars and it ain’t palm reading.

These usually aren't fronts per se. They do everything there. Tax prep, scams, consulting, private eyes. These psychic places are never JUST a psychic place that's usually just what the sign says.

You know you're screwed when you need a psychic to prepare your taxes.

That's a bit of a stretch. The most likely explanation is that they clearly foresaw the lotto numbers.
