Dear Izzati -
1. Quite long, but given the complexity of this study, one lifetime may not be enough.
2. Feng Shui can be practiced by anyone, as it has no spiritual/religious associations.
3. Feng Shui is NEITHER tradition nor belief. It's the study of the land's influence to buildings, and subsequently, humans. Nothing to do with 'chinese-looking' objects.
4. No. Maybe that's why I have to work hard for my money!
5. China.
6. Nothing will happen. But I think most practitioners will become bored after retiring. Feng Shui cases are unique and interesting - keeps us on our toes.
7. If used correctly - and timed properly with the BaZi chart - then YES.
8. If used correctly, then of course. I myself used it to help my studies when I was younger.
9. Depends how big the room is, but mostly it's okay.
10. If you like plants, then you can have it.
11. Since Feng Shui is all abou the land, only buildings are applicable. Cars - no.
12. How do you define 'fortune telling'?
Perhaps the 'Tutorial' section and our articles can give you a better insight to Feng Shui. It takes a little time to understand what it means, and the best thing is - the more you know about Feng Shui, the simpler it gets! Cheers! SN
