He had been a client of mine since 2007. For nearly 15 years, my predictions came true, and he kept consulting me—until one fine day, everything went wrong.
I offer two kinds of services: Direct Answers and Detailed Reports.
• Direct Answers: I give straightforward answers—no beating around the bush, no jargon. Ask, “When will I get married?” I give the year and month range. Ask, “When will I change my job?” I tell you the timeframe. That’s it. For detailed reports, you pay more because it requires more of my time and effort. Under “Ask 1 Question,” a detailed report is impossible.
This client asked a direct question. I gave a direct answer. And suddenly, he wasn’t happy.
“I need more details to understand what if you are wrong?” he said.
I thought: why consult an astrologer if the question is “what if you’re wrong?” I said, “You got your answer. No more details.”
Then came the clincher: “When we go to a hotel to eat idli – sambar and chutney come free.”
Holy cow. Comparing astrology to idlis? Time to end this conversation. I refunded his payment in full—letting him have his idlis, sambar, and chutney for free. Rule No. 16 (https://askenni.com/rules/) clearly states: once refunded, you’re dead to me—no exceptions.
A few months later, a lady emailed me for “Ask 1 Question” service. Payment came through—but the name matched the idli guy. I returned the money and reminded him: never pay me again.
Months later, he apologized for the idli-sambar incident. I accepted. Then he sent a long mail wanting consultation. I sent him my invoice for Relationship Revival Fees (Rule 16) and Pissing Me Off Charges (Rule 17). Rules – https://askenni.com/rules/
Silence followed.
Moral: When bad times strike, humans act against their own interests—sometimes hilariously so. In Sanskrit, it’s beautifully summed up:
Vinasha Kāle, Viparīt Buddhi.
(In times of destruction, the mind goes against its own wisdom.)
