The idea that people would surely use this to make money is very old and so is the most common retorts: "you can't make money with limited info" and "I have no use for money". Both of these are false unless you want to assume all people with ESP are uncreative, too selfless to want money for themselves, but too selfish in a weird way they wouldn't give money to charity a la Henry Sugar. There is no shortage of creativity and selfishness for people faking ESP to make money though.
