I spent the last couple weeks digging into the WILD world of people selling spells (as in, witchcraft!) on Etsy -- which it officially banned nearly a decade ago.
Either Etsy is either really bad at content moderation, or it's not even trying.
Still, anyone want to buy a "trillionaire spell" It's only $19.20! 😂
Anyway, @forbes subscribers get my story for free:
