I ate 12 Rainbows today!

It has been sizzling hot here for the past week or so.  I got stuck with my pet whale indoor.  I'm bored.

I showed Grandpa Ken my sad puppy look.  This always works wonder.

"Let's visit the water dragon in our yard."  Grandpa told me.

"Water! Water!  Thank you Grandpa!"

"Open your mouth when you are happy!"

Suddenly, I saw a rainbow.

The rainbow looked tasty, so I ate it.

"Yummy!"  I've eaten 12 rainbows!

"Oops!  What's happening to me?"

I was showered by a golden light.

I was transformed into a water-dragon dog!

Below is the video link to see me eating rainbows:

"Tang Ping" Wealth-attracting Cat 躺平招財貓

Do you want to attract wealth without making much effort?  If yes, today is your lucky day!  No purchase necessarily, no soliciting phone call/ email and DON'T email me.

All you need is to print out the "Tang Ping" wealth-attracting cat (躺平招財貓) below and put it where you stay most of the time, like your desk.  Then once or twice a day,  you stare at this photo and visualize money rolling in.

"Tang Ping" (躺平) is a buzzword meaning "lying flat" originated in China recently.  It refers to a new lifestyle trend of some Chinese young people.  They give up materialism or "rat race", vow to not getting married, procreating no baby and buying no real estate.  They make little or no effort for materialistic gains and fame or "lying flat".  They live frugally or in surviving mode.  This could be China's homebrew version of "hippie" or counter-culture.

"Tang Ping" in our case of wealth-attracting cat means getting wealth without making much effort!

The cat in this photo is my resident cat Lily, also known as Feng Shui Master Lily, Buddha's pet and Buddha's White Tiger (right guard).  She demonstrates the secret posture of attracting wealth while lying down in the photo.

When you get your effortless money, Master Lily requests that you send her 10 cans of cat food or USD$10 or donate to your local animal humane society.

"Ken, what should I do if money does not show up after a month or two with this Tang Ping kitty?"

This means you do not have enough merit or good karma points to get this wealth.  Simply go to your local animal humane society and adopt a real cat to pump up your merit.  Do not buy this kitty from a pet shop.

Good Luck!

Ken's saving the world 2024 predictions

2023 will be over in less than 2 months.  The Year of Dragon and also Feng Shui Period 9 will start in 3 months.  Thus now is the busy season for crystal gazing or mud-throwing or "predictions" for year 2024.

A quick search of YouTube shows both dead and living psychics, from Nostradamus, the late Bulgarian Baba Vanga, to the famous Indian psychic kid and even Simpson the cartoon character,  make mostly horrible predictions about 2024.  War, flooding, drought, fire, earthquake, famine, WWIII, pandemic,..... Any possible disaster under the sun is included.  Chinese psychic and metaphysicians also make similar predictions.  This makes one wonder if the end of humanity or world will happen in 2024.  Below are some video title screens captured from Youtube:

If we believe the Buddhist theory about "reality follows mind" (境隨心轉 jìng-suí-xīn-zhuan), this spread of negative predictions creates a mass consciousness that could possibility become realities or self-fulfilling prophecy.  

To counteract these negative predictions,  Ken has made 10 predictions about 2024: 

1. The sun will rise from the east and set in the west everyday.
2. Everyday in 2024 is a good day for you.
3. You will have good wealth luck.
4. You will be healthy in 2024.
5. You will sleep well everyday.
6. Peace in Middle East.
7. Peace in Ukraine 
8. No major natural disaster
9. No economic crises
10. No social unrest

2024 will be much better if you get more people to read this 10 predictions.

COVID vaccine for the ghosts?

Today is the 15th day and 7th month of the lunar calendar-- the Hungry Ghost Festival (盂蘭節) for many Eastern Asian countries, especially for the Chinese.  The origin of this festival can be traced back to India's "Ullambana" or "Ullumpana".

According to Chinese belief, the seventh lunar month is also called "ghost month".  During this month, the underworld opens its gate and lets its ghost residents "vacation" in the human world. 

This sudden influx of ghost tourists are really scary.  So people make offerings and burn paper money to appease them.  Hopefully these ghosts will make no trouble after being fed and showered with gifts and paper money.

This year I have found a new interesting offering to the ghosts-- a COVID vaccine kit with three doses!  Yes!  3 doses with different colors-- red, blue and green.  Probably the red one is from Sinovax, blue is Pfizer and green may be Moderna or AZ.  The UCDC (Underworld Center for Disease Control) seems to be more up-to-date than our CDC here.  They have already discovered the mixing vaccines and 3-doses tricks!

I hope there is no Antivaxer ghost in the underworld or else the people who offer this vaccine kit will be in great danger.

My Two CATeaching Assistants

I have two cateaching assistants when I had produced my "Applied Bazi: Sickness Forecasting and Management".  They are sibling cats.

This is "Bad Boy" or BB for short.  His nickname says it all.  He is "naughty" and always looks for next adventure or trouble for me.

BB's sister is "Good Girl" or GG for short.  But "good" is relative to BB, she still scratches my furniture and splits my window curtains.

BB crashed into my video booth while I filming course video.  I caught him red-handed. I was surprised that he is camera-shy.

GG did not want to miss the fun, so she crashed into my video booth too.

With the lovely hearts in the background, you may think that I was doing a dating show for cats.  No, I was doing the chapter on "heart diseases" while GG invaded the set.  But she was at ease with the camera.

GOOD GIRL'S SECRET

This is GG relaxing on the floor.  She likes to lay down like a human.

Do you see the "hidden animal" in GG as shown in the picture below (click picture to enlarge if you want to see more detail)?  You need to use your subconscious mind to see this animal.

New Revenue Source for Feng Shui Practitioners

Someone posted a link about the Singapore Government chasing down Feng Shui masters for refund on their work for the Singapore Flyer (ferris wheel) in my Facebook page.
http://newnation.sg/2014/05/govt-seeking-refund-from-feng-shui-masters-as-spore-flyer-still-bankrupt/

This is scary for people in the Feng Shui ecosystem (if not egosystem).  But I have doubt about the authenticity of this article for 2 simple reasons:

1. Singapore Government is one of the few smart governments left in this world.  For sure they would have caught the Feng Shui masters or at the least, frozen their bank accounts.
2. Anyone with half a brain will know that Feng Shui is only part of the equation for personal or business successes.

 "First fate, second luck, third Feng Shui, fourth good deeds, fifth study, ........"   is the famous Chinese saying on the ranking of important attributes of destiny.  Feng Shui is ranked number three only.

Economic forecasters do not guarantee results. Business consultants do not guarantee successes. Even weather forecasters with advanced equipment like doppler radar cannot guarantee accurate forecast.  How can one expect a few Feng Shui audits or designs to replace marketing research/ planning and management practices?

Can Feng Shui handle changing business environment, physical environment (Feng Shui) and competitions? Local Singaporeans figure these factors out without blaming Feng Shui.
http://sbr.com.sg/hotels-tourism/exclusive/singapore-flyer-placed-under-receivership-what-went-wrong
http://www.singapolitics.sg/views/why-singapore-flyer-hasnt-taken

Thanks to this "Feng Shui lynching" article, it gives me a new revenue idea for our hardworking (and maybe starving) Feng Shui folks --we can offer "Feng Shui pinata" service for professionals in marketing and management.

"Ken, are you kidding?  You mean clients can beat us up when their business sucks?"

Kind of.  We offer the service to be the "fall guy" of business people's marketing or management flops. So they can blame their failures on Feng Shui and keep their jobs.  If their business is a great success, they can keep all the glory to themselves and mention nothing about the Feng Shui work done.

If you offer this "Feng Shui pinata" service, please send 10% royalty to Ken Lai's PayPal account or any charity of your choice.

What is Feng Shui-- 10 years before and after

10 years ago, Penn and Teller's cable TV show "Bullshit!" had a segment on Feng Shui in USA.

In this episode, the producers had invited three Feng Shui practitioners to audit the same house.  All the practitioners seemed to be practicing traditional Chinese Feng Shui but giving conflicting advice.  The impression that Penn and Teller had given to the audience was:  Feng Shui is moving furniture if not bullshit.

You can watch this "Bullshit" episode here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjeFb-bzt8k

Fast-forward 10 years--  "Lookout", a consumer watchdog type program of ABC TV network here has a segment on Feng Shui last week.  The producers have invited 5 "Feng Shui" practitioners to advise on the Feng Shui of a Manhattan apartment in New York City.

Unlike Penn and Teller's merciless presentation, the "Lookout" is more "civilized" or objective and let the audience form their own opinion about Feng Shui.

The focus of  first practitioner is "green" or placing plants virtually everywhere in the apartment and also charges a lot of "green" (US$800- 2500), forest not included in his fee.  The program did not show him using any measuring equipment like a luopan or compass.  Even the client exclaims that she will know the guy in plant store very well.

The second practitioner has used a Trifield EMF meter to do her "Feng Shui" business.  She has used the meter to measure ghost energies and then "cleanse" it with her copper bells and will power or "healing frequency".  Obviously this is not really Feng Shui but spiritual or space cleansing.

The third practitioner did not use any measurement equipment either, but she has used her hands mostly-- moving and throwing stuff away.  This is "decluttering" or house-cleaning.  A cleaning lady probably will cost a lot less.

The fourth practitioner is a bona-fide Chinese Feng Shui master whose call to fame was doing Donald T's Feng Shui work.  She has done some luopan measurements and  given some "poison-arrows" and energy talks.  But the program did not give her much time to explain what was going on.

The last one is the "mirror" guy and did not do any measurement either.  This follows the western tradition of using mirrors and crystals extensively for Feng Shui work.

This program has given only 5.54 minutes to "showcase" 5 practitioners and different ways of doing Feng Shui, for sure injustice may be done to them.

You may watch the actual video here:
http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/video/feng-shui-19502809

In Penn and Teller's program, all the Feng Shui practitioners were doing traditional Chinese Feng Shui. 10 years later,  in the "Lookout" program,  only one out of five practitioners is real Chinese Feng Shui practitioner.  Therefore, Chinese Feng Shui is losing territories to other practices masquerading as Feng Shui, at least in USA.

THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK
Will you be surprised when you go to a "Wealth-building" or motivational seminar and find out it is actually a Feng Shui or Bazi fortune-telling seminar?

This already is happening.  Some smart dudes in the Chinese metaphysics circle "borrow" a page from Anthony Robbins and the "Attraction" crowds.  They repackage their Feng Shui and Bazi seminars as tools  to gain immense wealth and motivation.

Sooner or later, the Chinese dudes will get even with those who have encroached their turf.

Feng Shui of Microsoft's Dragon Mouse

Dragon is the most beloved animal of the Chinese people.  It represents prosperity, blessing and success in the Chinese lore.  This belief gives marketers a tremendous opportunity to make some quick bucks with the upcoming of the Year of Dragon.

Rolls Royce of UK, manufacturer of deluxe vehicles, has marketed a "limited edition" of a dragon car by hand painting a few golden dragons in the interior of a Phantom model vehicle. People have snapped up this dragon inventory within a week when the car was put in the market. This dragon car has a little price tag of about US$1.2 million a pop.

Alas, not every Chinese is a rich panda to afford this Rolls Royce Dragon.  But they want to get some benefits from the year of dragon too.  So they resort to "making" dragon babies.  Many Chinese hospitals are already fully booked for dragon baby deliveries up to Sept. 2012 now.  This  baby boom will increase competitions for school, jobs, spouse among dragon babies themselves than other birth cohorts for the rest of their lives.

Well, not every Chinese is fortunate enough to have someone to "make" dragon baby with or afford a babysitter.  How can they cash in this dragon mania?

By the grace of God Microsoft has created two affordable "limited editions" dragon mice.  The black "Arch Touch Mouse" only costs you US$69.95 and the wireless "mobile mouse" US$34.95.

The question is:  Do the designers of these mouse models understand Feng Shui and Chinese folklore?

2012 is Ren-chen or year of water-dragon.  In Chinese metaphysics, black or blue stands for water. Therefore the base color of these mice is correct to use black.

However, the gold or metal colored dragon version is a little bit off, though still usable.  Year 2000 or Geng-chen was the year of metal dragon.  Metal nurtures water in Chinese 5-element theory, so a gold colored dragon is still acceptable or auspicious for the year of water dragon.  For the same reason the gray-colored dragon on the Arch Touch Mouse is considered metal and so it is also acceptable.

The model with red dragon imprinted can be put in storage till 2036 when the year of fire-dragon (Bing-chen) comes.  Fire-dragon clashes water dragon-- inauspicious for the user of this mouse during 2012. Microsoft can market the red dragon mouse as an antique mouse in 2036 if it is still in business.

Now comes to the most important question-- are these dragon mice good Feng Shui or not?  You need to learn something about the concept of Grand Duke or the Annual Ruler of the year.

2012 is the year of the dragon.  This means dragon is the Grand Duke or Ruler of the Year.  Dragon is your boss for the year.  Chinese Feng Shui dictates that you should not face Grand Duke directly, let alone holding his head and moving his tail backwards when you use the dragon mouse.  This is disrespect to the max to Grand Duke.  Antagonizing Grand Duke is a one way ticket to make your life miserable.

"Ken, since I can't afford the Rolls Dragon or make a dragon baby, I have already bought a dragon mouse.  What should I do with it?"

Well, you may get rid of it on Ebay or put it at the back of where you sit most of the time.  Grand Duke enhances your competition power in business or examinations if he is at your back.  It is auspicious to have Grand Duke as your back support. You may use your dragon mouse safely after Feb.3, 2013.

Now Microsoft can market these dragon mice as Feng Shui remedies and double the prices.  Bill, do it quick before the Queen of Feng Shui picks up this business idea.

Hell does not take American Express, but it takes ....

When Chinese make offerings to their deceased relatives or hungry ghosts, they burn "joss paper money" for the ghosts to spend in the underworld.

Traditionally, this joss paper money carries the portrait of Emperor Yin Niu or "King of Hell" with a minimum denomination of 10 thousand dollars.

Recently I discover that in Taiwan, they have new "hell currencies".  These are:
1.  $500 US dollars with Ben Franklin's portrait
2.  $100 RMB (Chinese Yuan) with Chairman Mao's picture
3.  NT$1000 (New Taiwan dollar)

Apparently now Hell will take US dollars and RMB.  Given the huge differential in amount per note,  I wonder if the ghosts prefer the original joss paper money or the "new" US dollars or RMB.

Maybe Hell also has a mortgage crisis rendering its joss paper money value down to the toilet.

Maybe Hell people want to start their FOREX trading with RMB and US dollars. 

You can do a "5-ghosts delivering wealth" ritual offering different currency and see which one brings better results.

"How to pick up woman with Bazi (4P)?"

A 4P friend responds to my "winning lotto" post:

Hi Ken,

After reading your blog article on "How to enhance your chance of winning lotto", I have the following questions:

1. Seems to me that the "secret" does not consider the strength of the day-master (DM, wealth favorable or not) – is this important or not since the lotto prize would be only a small amount which can maybe be "handled" even by a weak DM?

Ken anwers: You are observant. Blog article is for general public and cannot be too specific due to the readers' diverse backgrounds. You probably are able to figure out which day and hour for a weak (DM)to buy the lotto (what stands for wealth for weak DM?). This is why I tell people to buy only one $1 lotto ticket.

2. For a male DM, considering that his Pian-cai (non-regular income) also represents his female lover, could he meet a lover / potential girlfriend during his trip to buy a lottery ticket (joking …. )?

Ken answers: Wow! You have inspired me to write, "How to pick up woman with 4P?". You will get 10% commission if it becomes a NY Times best seller. Anyone wants to pre-order?

I guess the guy either hitting the lotto or meeting a lover and may lose his shirt on the woman. Man with multiple pian-cai (non-regular wealth) in his chart tends to be a womanizer too-- keep your daughters away from him.

Pian-cai also stands for father, so the man may pick up another father on his way to buy the lotto--- just hope the old man is a rich guy or you may get stuck with his nursing home bills.

To know whether you will hit the lotto or pick up a woman or an old man, you may want to take my "4P Bootcamp" video correspondence course.

Think and Kill it

This is not a typo-- "think and kill it", not the "think and get it" from the positive thinking and "attraction" gurus.

Last Saturday I went to an electronic store and saw a great deal on a large LCD TV and ALMOST bought it. I had resisted temptation by thinking my 16 years old TV still "works".

Then on Sunday, my faithful TV emitted a "pop" sound and RIP (died).

"Boy, either my subconscious mind is so strong that killed the old TV or I got a very jealous TV." I thought.

Anyway, I do not want my old TV died for nothing. It gives me the inspiration to create the "Think and Kill it" books, tapes, DVDs, seminar and correspondence courses.

Imagine how much one will pay for "eliminating" or "neutralizing" (nicer words for "kill") their competitions, annoying boss or supervisors, love triangle, hated spouse for insurance claims and more--- without legal hassles? This is like doing "think and get it" from the back door.

Ken, have you bought the big LCD TV then?

"Not yet, I need to trace my thought processses to recreate the 'think and kill it' sequence, do some testings (any volunteer?), write the manual and then sell it like crazy--- before I can buy the TV."

"Huh, let me think of a major competition, who is the lucky fellow?" His or her spouse may be interested in a free trial of this course.

Happiness is: Free AARP membership OR someone says you look young?

I have received numerous free trial memberships from AARP (American Association of Retired People; www.aarp.org) in the last two years. I must be getting OLD!

On the other hand, many people said that I look young for my age. The other day an online idiot even says that I am "very young".

I like AARP's benefits of discount received from travel, insurance and other service. But looking "young" hurts business in the Chinese metaphysics world. People equate age to experience.

The issue of "age vs. experience" is similar to "lineage vs. no lineage". The young crowd uses the "white-cat-black-cat" theory (any cat that catches mice is great, regardless of age or lineage). The older crowd argues that experience is important and like wine, takes time to develop.

I am at the embarrassing age of fifty some years old--- too old to claim myself a "young and talented genius" like those in Asia and too young to be a "grandmaster".

"How about master?" "Masters" are everywhere and granted daily to anyone who pays. It's "value" is doubtful at best.

"So, what are you going to do, Ken?"

Just call me Ken. I can dye my hair white or pull my 87 years old father out of retirement to be my grandmaster.

Happy Year of Rat!

"Masters, you have forgotten the real horses."

Every year end, masters of various caliber enliven our lives with their "annual predictions". They tell us obvious things like "oil price will be very high" or "bank stocks sucks!" or scare us with those "famines, floods, earthquakes, terrorist attacks and (the sky may fall down)...".

2008 is the year of rat. They also give predictions based on the animal sign of the year--- rat is dirty, so disease will spread; rat means poverty, so people will be poorer...... there is no lack of imagination (or no imagination is needed).

When someone shoot out 100's of "predictions", there will be some hit the mark. The "misses" will be forgotten and the "hits" will be amplified 10X next year for promotions.

Few masters will make predictions if someone or website keeps a database of the "hit" and 'miss" of each master's annual predictions.

Yesterday (Jan. 30) and today, there are sad reports of horses being euthanized or starved to death from local newspaper:

http://www.startribune.com/business/14873851.html

I quote a few paragraphs here just in case you can't read the above link:

===========================
The ever-worsening story of foreclosures in America now counts among its victims the family dog, the pet cat and even the farmer's horse.

Animal rescue volunteers say they're seeing more animals abandoned or dropped off at shelters as families are forced to move from homes that they can no longer afford.

"I'm getting skinny horses in here that people have walked away from," said Drew Fitzpatrick, director of the Minnesota Hooved Animal Rescue Foundation, based in Zimmerman, Minn.

......

The problem has been exceedingly acute for horse owners, who were already facing high feed costs because of rising commodity prices and the recent elimination of horse slaughterhouses in America. That market -- a federal ban recently closed the last three such slaughterhouses in the United States -- once provided horse owners with an option that paid about $600 per horse, when there was nowhere else to turn.

Reports have cropped up of horses wandering the Florida Everglades and coal mines in Kentucky, where owners too poor to care for them have set them free to forage on their own.

A horse owner recently euthanized more than 80 horses, most of them Shetland ponies, in Grey Eagle, Minn., northwest of St. Cloud, because of rising feed costs and her own poor health.

........

Others are seeking help. "All of our rescue groups are overwhelmed with horses," said Stephanie Valberg, director of University of Minnesota equine center.

.........

===========================
In 4-Pillars, rat clashes horse (zi-wu clash). It seems real horses also get affected too when Year of Rat approaches.

While most masters have warned people with horse animal sign to be careful during the Year of Rat, almost none has warned the real horses (or at least horse owners).

Read my lips-- these masters will warn the goats (rams) for 2009 (year of ox) and monkeys in 2010 (year of tiger).

PhD Gowns and Dragon Robe

I was surfing in Google's "Feng Shui" image archive the other day. A young entrepreneur has posted the graduation pixes of his metaphysics school there.

The pixes look very impressive . You see the young entrepreneur and his graduates dressed in PhD style gowns and caps. It is a little bit odd to see the young guy granting a super-sized diploma to someone who could be older than his mother. It looks as if the older students were granting him a diploma.

I told myself, "I should do something like that, requiring my graduates to wear PhD style gown and cap."

"No, you should do something better than PhD gowns." My little voice told me.

"Besides, nowadays, even kindergarten and high school graduates wear gowns."

Then lighting suddenly struck inside my head.

I was in China earlier this year and saw "dragon robes" (robe worn by the Chinese emperor) for sale.

Now I can outdo PhD gown by requiring my graduates wearing "dragon robe". They will be granted the titles of "Emperor of Feng Shui", "Empress of Feng Shui", "Emperor of 4P" .... and so on.

This for sure will blow away titles like "master" or "master-trainer".

Only 20 graduates will be granted these highest possible titles, so book yours ASAP!

Feng Shui your way to the bank or the biz of FS

Note: The following blog was written on April 22, 2005


I've received the following spam email and have lots
of fun with it. So I hope it will start your day with
some laughs.

All the names have been changed except the guilty one
(Ken). I've make some comments in the text. I do not
dispute or endorse the FS method discussed in the
text.

However, we can learn a lot from this spam as it
covers lots of classic marketing skills, applicable to
other fields besides FS.


Ken

================================================


Ken,
I'M GOING TO HELP YOU MAKE
A MILLION DOLLARS
WITHOUT EVEN LEAVING YOUR HOME!

Dear Ken,

That's right - you can earn a million dollars! You
won't have to leave your house or apartment. You
don't even have to make a phone call. All you need to
do is rearrange your furniture. Clean a special area
of your kitchen. Or hang a mirror on the correct
wall. It's easy - once you know the secret!

Yes, Ken! Feng Shui Master XXX, wants to reveal to
you an ancient Chinese secret that will show you how
to turn your home into a powerful magnet for wealth
and good fortune.

XXX's rags-to-riches story is so incredible, I
simply have to let him tell it to you directly, in his
own words.

First, I want to thank (spammer's name) for
giving me this chance to speak to you.

My name is XXX. I was born to a poor family in
China in 1935, and began my education with the very
selective XXX FENG SHUI School of Buddhist monks when
I was a child of eight. There I was taught the
closely guarded secrets of FENG SHUI that can provide
the "3 Great Blessings" of Health, Happiness and
Prosperity to those who understand its mysteries.
(Ken: GM Lin should be flattered by this sincere
imitation)

Years later, after we'd escaped the Communist
regime in China, I used the wisdom I had attained as a
master of FENG SHUI to help my parents make a fortune!

Knowing that I had given riches and security to
my parents filled me with pride. Despite my
schooling, I am a devout Christian and I vowed that I
would use my mastery of FENG SHUI not for my own
profit, but to help other people like you, Ken - good,
honest people who struggle every day to make ends
meet.

To me, FENG SHUI was the key to making the
American dream come true - the promise that anyone,
with enough luck and the right help, can become
magnificently wealthy!
(Ken: this is a real pro! He knows we need money and enough
luck¡¨)

Successful businessmen around the world have
already cashed in on this ancient miracle of wealth
and power. Major magazines and newspapers have
reported how Michael Ovitz and Donald Trump, two of
America's most dynamic tycoons, have consulted
traditional masters of this powerful art to help
design and bless their offices. It is said you can
see its principles in the design of the Trump Tower!
(Ken: Donald Trump has filed bankruptcy a few months
ago. Fortunately, he did not admit using FS in his
book "How to Get Rich¡¨, so his problems has nothing
to do with FS.)

Citibank, Chase Asia, PaineWebber, the Asian Wall
Street Journal -- all respected, conservative
financial institutions -- as well as the firm of
renowned architect I.M. Pei are a few of the more
prominent businesses that have paid thousands of
dollars to have this secret of gaining and preserving
their staggering fortunes. But YOU don't have to!
(Ken: This is great copy-writing¡ no need to pay big
bucks to use FS! I'd have save tons of tuition fees if
I've bought this guide years ago.)


I want YOU to use the power of FENG SHUI
to attract money, good luck and happiness.
I'm going to give you the key to a new life of
luxury and freedom, because I think that anyone who
wants to be rich should have a chance to make that
dream come true. That's why I've put all of these
remarkable secrets into one clear and simple guide
I've called
FENG SHUI: XXX INSTANT WEALTH.
(Ken: Master XXX must be inspired by instant noodles)

Here's what FENG SHUI did for one client of mine,
J.G. of Oakland, CA:
"I had a table and a mirror in my front hallway.
According to you, it was blocking the flow of positive
energy into my home. I moved the table and changed
the mirror to the other wall. Two days later I got a
call from a lawyer. A distant relative I had never
heard of had just died. He left me $500,000.00 in his
will. How's that for positive energy!?"
(Ken: President Bush probably will ban this guide or
our relatives will die like flies.)

FENG SHUI could work for you as it did for J.G.
and hundreds of my clients. And you won't have to
spend years learning mystical secrets like I did. You
won't have to pay the outrageous fees that
millionaires pay to other FENG SHUI masters.
(Ken: Again, this is very convincing. FS masters will
be out of business.)

I'm offering all the secrets of Asia's most
closely guarded mystery at an amazingly low price
because I want to see good people like you -
hard-working citizens - enjoy the fun and freedom of
being incredibly rich!
(Ken: Hope it is also for hardly-working folks like me
too.)

These are some of the amazing discoveries you'll
find in my secret guide, FENG SHUI: xxx INSTANT WEALTH

What your front door opens up to - how it can bring in
good luck.

The arrangement of furniture in your living room -
creates a whirlwind of positive energy that delivers
money through telephone or mail.
(Ken: This is a new invention¡ wealth through phone
and mail.... is it phone sex?)

That special part of your kitchen - clean it once a
day and increase your chances of winning the lottery.
(Ken: Smart copy-writing; just increase your chance,
no guarantee)

The ceiling in your bedroom - it can energize your sex
life, attracting rich lovers.
(Ken: Wow! Great sex and money, who can refuse this
offer?)

The direction of your bed - allows dreams to reveal
lucky numbers.
(Ken: Also works on dreams!)

Do you have a mirror? I'll tell you exactly
where to hang it so it turns your home into a beacon
of light that attracts money energy. I'm sure you
love the sound of wind chimes. So do the prosperity
spirits you'll draw to your home. I'll show you how
to hang your chimes and create the special music that
brings the sound of money into your life!
(Ken: I think it is more to Master xxx's life.)

There's one special corner in your living room.
Put a red object there and your money doubles within
two weeks! That's right - DOUBLES! Find out where
that corner is in my secret guide, FENG SHUI: xxx
INSTANT WEALTH.
(Ken: I make sure my wife will not sit there or my
pain will be doubled.)

Did you know that a small aquarium, if placed
correctly, cleans your room of all negative energy?
Or that a plant, growing in the right spot, makes that
area a fertile ground for spirits of abundance? With
FENG SHUI, these spirits establish themselves in your
home and become powerful money-making forces!
(Ken: I don't know spirits like fertilizers)

I'm saving the best for last. Here's an amazing
fact:

Every home has a MAGNETIC MONEY POWER POINT. Sit
there for 10 minutes a day and you'll be able to
predict winning lottery numbers, sports teams and
stocks.
(Ken: The pot gets sweeter and sweeter, winning lotto,
sports and stock!)

I'll show you how to find your home's MAGNETIC
MONEY POWER POINT in your secret guide FENG SHUI: XXX
INSTANT WEALTH.

So many of my overjoyed clients have sent me
letters telling me how they have benefited from the
power of FENG SHUI to attract money. It is my most
sincere wish that you too could someday send me a
letter like this:
"I set up the mirrors, fans and plants like you said.
I'd been unemployed and was down to the end of my
savings. I sat down in the MAGNETIC MONEY POWER POINT
and waited for a miracle. Five different people
called in the next hour, all asking for the same wrong
number. I played the number five plus that 'wrong'
number in the lottery, and guess what? I won 3
million dollars!"
(Ken: From now on, I won't swear at my wrong number
callers.)

Good luck, incredible fortune and astonishing
amounts of money are out there. Direct them into your
home, work space and bank account with FENG SHUI!
(Ken: I'm drooling. Stop the BS and give me the
guide!)

I've mentioned there's a MAGNETIC MONEY POWER POINT in
every home -- including yours! -- where money forces
converge and cross-energize. I want to make sure that
you know how to find this spot with one quick glance.
Along with your Feng Shui secret guide, I'll send you
a great gift - a visual diagram that reveals exactly
which part of your home is your MAGNETIC MONEY POWER
POINT. This diagram is called the Ba-gua. It's
beautifully printed in two colors. Use your Ba-gua to
find the exact location of your MAGNETIC MONEY POWER
POINT, then follow the instructions in your secret
guide to absorb that energy and become a money-making
magnet!
(Ken: Me becoming a money-making magnet and you spend
my money?)

Yes, I'm completely certain FENG SHUI will turn
your home into a powerhouse of good fortune and help
you become a multi-millionaire. I'll back that claim
with an absolute guarantee. Order FENG SHUI: XXX
INSTANT WEALTH totally at my risk. I'll give you as
much time as you need to read it, follow the simple
instructions and make a million dollars.

This is your chance to become a member of the
FENG SHUI Millionaires Club.

You have nothing to lose, Ken. It's that simple.
Nothing to lose and millions to gain. And because
you are a friend of (Spammer name), I would be
delighted to offer you this invaluable guide for only
$9.95. That is 60 percent off the regular price,
which comes to a savings of over $15.00 for you
(Ken: Master XXX, please aim higher. This great
copy-writing deserves more than 10 bucks!)

Ask for your FENG SHUI: XXX INSTANT WEALTH today
and then, if you haven't made ONE MILLION DOLLARS
during your lifetime -- or if at any time, for any
reason, you are not completely satisfied -- just
return your secret guide and I'll immediately send you
a complete refund, including the shipping and handling
charge,...with no explanation necessary.
(Ken: This part is great! He does not lie at all.
Assuming an average American works 40 years for his
life time and makes as little as $25000 a year, he
will make his million.)

So you see, you don't have to take any chances to
