I am intrigued by this forum, I did read some of its threads and I think that I can find here the answers that I am looking for. I also noticed that some great members offer their help right away so I will go on with my story. I am from a family that has an inclination on philosophy and the meta-physical. My mother was doing on an unprofessional level some tarot reading and some other stuff that you may not be familiar with due to cultural distance between our countries. Personally, I am hesitant to believe in superior powers but I have developed an ability to read people that to them seems from time to time magical. I developed this through actively listening to people when they talk to me. What I would like to do, is to expand this and somehow utilize it to make money. I know that there are a lot of taboos around money but I hope that some of you may look at money as not something inherently evil. So, if anyone would like to point me to any direction I would appreciate it a lot. Any websites, books, guides, tutorials are welcomed. Also any more general tips are welcomed too.
Thank you very much.

May I suggest you devour everything you can find from Herb Dewey.

Sounds like his stuff could be right up your alley.

Welcome Relaxing Void,

You are talking about entertaining for Money rather than starting a church or contacting the dead right?

@Boomer. Thanks for your suggestion. I am reading his books right now and I like them a lot.
@MaryMowder. Yes, I am talking about entertaining for money. Do you have any suggestions? Do you think that it is possible for a new person in this field to make 2k a month?

I would never suggest getting into Magic for the money. There are easier ways to Make Money.

There are never any specifics about income. If you book shows you get paid. Each person's prices are different and their skill sets are different, some are good a business, some aren't. For anything any one could tell you, there would be others with a totally different opinion.

If you love Magic, like meeting and entertaining people, enjoy the company of other Magicians, like practicing and thinking about Magic, then get into Magic.
