Sylvia Browne Net Worth - Pulptastic
Sylvia Browne: Psychic Author and TV Personality
Sylvia Browne was an American author and psychic who had a net worth of $1.5 million dollars at the time of her death in 2013. Born in Kansas City, Missouri in 1936, Browne began having psychic visions as a child. Her grandmother, a medium, helped her to understand the visions, and she went on to work full-time as a psychic, giving readings professionally from the early 70s onwards.
Browne launched her own corporation, Sylvia Browne Corporation, and a related business, Sylvia Browne Enterprises, which controlled her radio and television program appearances, as well as the publication of nearly fifty books on paranormal activity and spiritualism. She also launched her own church in the late 80s, the Society of Novus Spiritus, a Gnostic Christian church based in California.
Despite becoming widely known for making numerous psychic predictions that were often found to be false, Browne earned $850 per 30-minute session for her psychic readings. She was a regular guest on TV and radio talk shows, including The Montel Williams Show and Larry King Live, where she offered paid psychic consultations and called readings. Browne even hosted her own, an hour-long, Internet radio show on Hay House Radio.
Browne faced criticism for making false predictions about missing persons, such as Shawn Hornbeck and Amanda Berry. Despite this, she remained a popular figure in the world of psychics and spiritualists until her death in 2013.
