lol I contributed to that 1 billion! I worked as a Virtual Operator for Miss Cleo. The companies name is actually Psychic Readers Network. and no I didn't take work as a Psychic, I took calls and forwarded them to the psychics. You wouldn't believe the number of people that called in, it was unreal. The FCC went after PRN because they had some psychics that were frauds. Some of the psychics had some really deceptive tricks to keep the callers on the line. Some even tried to extort money from the callers. The business just got too big and out of control. The owner, Steve Feder actually contracted out to other companies to hire operators and psychics. Once he did that he started losing control over who was hired and what they were doing on the phone.
I am sure that the company that runs those late night phone sex commercials is probably making the same kinds of money. Its amazing the masses of people that you can reach using television advertising.
