"The first hours in analysis are usually spent, according to a survey made back in Dianetic days, finding out how much the patient can pay. After that, the patient is persuaded to believe that it will require about a year of four separate sessions of one hour each week to establish whether or not analysis can do anything for him. At the end of a year, of course, he is so habituated to coming to the analyst and handing over almost the entirety of his pay check that he does not stop doing so, and forgets that the analyst has ever said that it would require a year just to find out. Nothing is being done for the patient but he does not notice this. When the patient runs out of money, he is abandoned." -- Professional Auditor's Bulletin No. 93 of 24 July 1956, copyright 1956 L.
