What do ghosts, Reiki healing, witches, evil omens, and telepathy all have in common?

They are all based on claims, it true, would exist outside of what scientists today understand to be the natural world governed by natural laws – in other words, the paranormal, or beyond the normal.

There are many “real” brain theories of something cognitive deficits.  One study that interested me (conducted by William MacDonald) found that the greater financial dissatisfaction was associated the higher reports higher reports of clairvoyance (a person who claims to have a supernatural ability to perceive events in the future or beyond normal sensory contact.)

In other words your social ecology influences your paranormal belief.

Conclusion: With my finances I should be really, really clairvoyant.
