End-of-year statistical reports suggest that fortune tellers and other “sorcerers” made 20 times more this year than psychologists

Russians spent almost as much money on “sorcerers” and various “occult services” in 2024 as they did on groceries, the newspaper MK claimed on Tuesday, citing end-of-year statistical reports.

According to the outlet, incomes in the ‘magical’ segment of the economy grew by 20% last year and are expected to exceed that percentage in 2024.
