A ventriloquist set up a cart in a shopping mall, selling dummies and books of his art, but the business was desperately slow. After 3 months he had hardly made any money and feared that he would have to close down as he could no longer afford the rent. Eventually he confided in his accountant, who suggested: “Why don’t you try something completely different? Another client of mine is making a fortune as a psychic, conducting séances. That’s where the money is these days.”
So the ventriloquist changed his cart and set up business as a psychic offering 3 different rates for his service – $30, $50, and $100.
On his first day, a woman asked him about conducting a séance to contact her dead husband.
“Certainly, madam. As you can see there are three different prices of séance – $30, $50, and $100.
“What do I get for $30?” she inquired.
“For $30 you get to talk to your dead husband.”
“And for $50?”
“For $50 you get to talk to him, and he talks back.”
“And what do I get for $100?”
“For $100, you talk to him and he talks back to you while I drink a glass of water.”
