When looking at the hands of fraudster, does the palmist look at their own hands for reference?

No, he looked at palms of Elizabeth Holmes among others.

I read this on the toilet and was nearly overcome with a powerful urge to shatter my skull against the handbasin.

I sympathise. Now imagine living in a place where people unironically believe this crap

Comments on the post are hilarious. This guy literally called his “field” research-oriented.

Ridiculous.

How is Ashneer Grover a "former co-founder"? Is he such a fraudster that he rewrote the past and stopped himself from founding the company?
