Home and Auto Feng Shui: What is your opinion? - Page 4

**Rain Man** · 04-28-2009, 08:49 PM

I like watching those home shows on HGTV, and there's one now (less interesting than normal) about staging homes for sale.

First off, it's a 38th floor condo and it's got floor to ceiling windows that make up an entire large wall. It's a nice place, but there's no way I could live there. I'd always be petrified of tripping and falling through the windows to my death.

But that's not my point.

The owner brought in two stagers, one who does the work and the other who is a Feng Shui consultant. It's kind of funny, because she's vetoing stuff being proposed by the stager because of Feng Shui reasons. While I'm into home decorating, I can't get behind the Feng Shui stuff.

It is by far one of the most stupid things anyone has ever come up with. And it is even more stupid that people "believe" it.

It just seems that it would broaden the market.

That sounds reasonable.

This video tells it better than anything else....Feng Shui is pure bullshit.
