Are there any 'career' in the paranormal that people actually get paid for?

Question

Or is everything that they do just like a hobby?

Answer 1

There are very few *honest* paranormal career options.  Many people who are able to make a living must rely on grants or fundraising in order to earn any sort of a paycheck.

Answer 2

People with this careers get a lot of money, Have you see Criss Angel????

Answer 3

You could be a host on Celebrity paranormal project.

Ha :)

Answer 4

i think ppl are too skeptical to rely on paranormal information..

i find it really interesting to see what ppl discover about crimes and stuff that actually turns out to be true.. crazy

Answer 5

that is a really good question...I think that you could become like a paranormal investigator where you investigate aerial objects, report UFOs, and research

UFOs, Ghosts, Alien Abduction and etc. but, I think that you could have a career in the paranormal.

Answer 6

Answer 9

Answer 10

I've heard that dousing is used to locate mineral deposits.   If that it so, it is a skill that would be worth some money.

Answer 11

If you become a priest..I'm sure you'll be dealing with a lot of paranormal things. They pay for your upkeep and also you get to travel. But you shouldn't do it to get involved in the paranormal. You should do it for the RIGHT reasons.

Answer 12

Yeah, they clean up the remains of dead people.

Answer 13

Yep there certainly is.  I'm seeing a clairvoyant on Tuesday evening and it's costing £25 for the reading.  That's alot of money if you're doing 8 hours a day.

Answer 14

I really wish that there was a career for paranormal investigators. It's a lot of work when you do right. But it's all worth it when we help our clients.

The only way to make money is if your psychic and you can charge people for readings.

Answer 15

At one time people interested in the study may become voluntary field reporters for for the Psychical Research Foundation by writing to the PRF Duke Station in Durham NC.  When they hear of a case and is unable to send an investigator at the time and it is in your area, they will send you instead.  But I do not know if they compensate you.  They investigate different paranormal areas, but are most interested in poltergiest activity.

Hope that helps you out.

Answer 16

ghost busting, being a psychic medium... you can get big bucks but only do it from the heart and if you are confident about what you are doing..

Answer 17

The only person I know who gets paid to do it is Joe Nickell, who works with CSICOP.  And he's much more of a skeptic than a believer.

Answer 18

If there is an honest to make money at this I love to know about it, other then working for the CIA.  I'd just settle for someone paying for the equipment.

Answer 19

We do it to help people and we don't get paid. But maybe one day when it is considered a "legitimate" field of research, there will be opportunities for pay!!
