As you said, Tarot will show you some options but it is up to us to actually walk the offered path. That said, I walked one of those offered paths and it led me to this present, which I really like so no regrets!

I once played with the cards guessing the outcomes of soccer games and it was 100% accurate. However, I also tried it on a gambling site and it didn't work. Maybe the cards have an agenda of their own and they weren't created to make anyone instantly rich, but I'm pretty sure they can offer you the guidelines to make you filthy rich, should you be willing to dance with the Devil haha.

Good post, I haven't read the cards in a long while, but I vouch for their usefulness specially when you're stuck and don't know how to proceed
