Fortune teller and VIP _ Dialogue between Fortune teller and VIP

Why did the ancients say that the poor love fortune telling and the rich love burning incense?

In our view, fortune telling and burning incense are the products of superstition and feudalism. Although now we see fewer and fewer fortune tellers in the streets. But during the holidays, the temple is still burning incense. Many people go to temples to burn incense. Pray for the blessing of God and Buddha. Why do poor people prefer fortune telling? Because the poor usually have no clear goals, they are often confused. At this time, fortune tellers appeared, and they even put forward some solutions through some numerology analysis.

For the poor, it is like pointing out a bright road for their gloomy life. Although these words are confusing, for the confused poor, they prefer to believe that it is true, which is why fortune tellers can exist. Moreover, the general fees for fortune telling are relatively low. Moreover, poor people don't often tell fortune, and occasionally this expense is affordable.

And the rich, they have a stable income. They go to the temple to burn incense and pray, and more importantly, they wish themselves good health and smooth things. Unlike the poor, they don't need fortune-tellers to give them advice. It costs a lot of money to give them a little hope, and it costs a lot of money to burn incense and refuel in the temple. Moreover, the first, fifteenth and various major festivals need to add some sesame oil money, which only the rich can afford and the poor can't afford. Over time, this phenomenon has formed.

So the poor like to burn incense and worship Buddha and donate some money. The poor like fortune telling less often. In essence, I hope to have a good life in the future. Because of economic constraints, they seek different ways.
