Then when they ask you why they're so tense tell them it's because they carry around too much emotional baggage.
When they want to find out more tell them that they're really not looking for a taiji teacher but a father and you cannot be that for them.
Then they'll be ready to pay you anything.
But should they leave you tell the others that the student wasn't ready to face their own shit. The others will see you as infinitely wise and do anything you say so they are not seen as someone else who is like that too.
The cult is now yours.

Also if they ask you questions about fighting tell them that first they need learn how to stand.
