"She should have seen it coming."
:rofl:

Next time, stick to the REAL psychics!

San Francisco bankruptcy attorney Jeena Cho has seen her fair share of extreme debting. "There is never a shortage of what people spend money on. I've had a gambler lose $80,000 in Vegas, continuing to believe he would make it back. I've also had several shopaholics who bought their way through Rolex, Gucci and Louis Vuitton," says Cho.

Her most extraordinary case, though, was the woman seeking mystic guidance.

"This client ran up about $30,000 in calls to a 900-number psychic hot line," says Cho. "She felt deeply ashamed about what she had done and had tried to pay off the debt for four years." Yet without the means to do so, bankruptcy was her only option left.

With that much clairvoyant advice, though, she should have seen it coming.
