What taboo?
Article Abstract:
Business consultant Peter Koenig is known for his informative workshops on the true significance of money. These workshops, which are typically held for two days with between eight to 20 participants, can be booked as a public program or arranged in a company setting. Koenig, a real estate economist with an MBA from the Geneva campus of IMD, began giving his money seminars in the mid-1990s. Deciding that there was a need to inform people of how they could wean themselves away from the money-driven culture, he devised his seminars to help people plan how to use their money for a good purpose.

Don't phooey feng shui
Article Abstract:
Feng shui is the Chinese art of materials placement and has been practised in China and in major Asian cities for nearly 4,000 years. The basic principle of feng shui is that a certain placement of furniture, and other physical structures can affect a person's luck, wealth and health. For instance, it has been considered by feng shui practitioners that a pillar standing in front of the main doorway can block the flow of good energy thus be bad for business.
