My mother in-law used to give me amulets before we decided we fucking despised one another.

That's the same reason I collect them. Silly buggers wittering on about superstition and atheism are missing out on a gold-mine. It's like refusing to accept a one-cent magenta because you don't write letters

I had one of them. I kept it in my bag of forgetfulness and I can't quite recall where I left it.

Jatukan were never worth anything, not Buddhist anyhow

Oh dear. Another thing you know nothing about.

My ex wife's brother who had spent time as a monk gave me an amulet for chock dee. He would have been better warning me that his sister was a money obsessed gambling maniac. The amulet didn't bring me much chock dee in the marriage
