Risk: High

1 – Extremely Risky High chance of losing money/time Someone starting as a tarot card reader from scratch could lose money, time, energy, and confidence. Beginners often spend money on tarot decks, courses, and marketing without guaranteed returns. There are startup costs like purchasing decks and possibly paying for advertising that might not pay off. Many people online report struggling to find clients and not recouping their initial investments. The market can be saturated, and building a reputation takes time, which can lead to discouragement. I’d rate the risk a 1 out of 5 because there is a high chance of losing money and time, especially if one cannot afford to invest without immediate returns.
