More than 20 years ago, I was an aspiring pop musician. Every day, I practiced for hours, wrote songs and then went to my day-job. I was supporting one small child, plus my wife, who was also 7+ months pregnant.
My day-job was laying people off, with a two-month severance. I asked what would happen if I took the severance, because I was -sure- that I was only a couple months away from music super-stardom. Just one card came up -- 5 of Coins.
Of course I was horrified, but it was very good advice. Everyone at the company was laid off -except- me. I stayed for at least several more years, and it led to a new career (unrelated to music). While I loved music with a passion, in retrospect, I wasn't very talented.
So 5 of Coins as "poverty and homelessness" persuaded me to change my plans, and it was the best advice I ever got. It was also one of the first readings I ever had. Sometimes, one card is all you need.
