Here’s a new fashion in which Japanese people are making unnecessary, expensive choices based on an irrational belief:
In Japan, where palm reading remains one of the most popular means of fortune-telling, some people have figured out a way to change their fate. It’s a simple idea: change your palm, change the reading, and change your future. All you need is a competent plastic surgeon with an electric scalpel who has a basic knowledge of palmistry. Or you can draw the lines on your hand with a marker and let him work the magic you want.
And it’s about 1.000 bucks each surgery. What a deal!
