Wealthy Millionaire Ring (Phaya Tor Ngern–Tor Thong)
Blessed by Luang Phor Chue Nimmalo
First Edition – Wai Kru Ceremony, 2008
Bodhisethi Meditation Center (Wat Pho Setthi Wanaram), Nakhon Pathom
Titanium plated with Swiss white gold (non-tarnishing)
The Wealthy Millionaire Ring, also known as the Phaya Tor Ngern–Tor Thong Ring, is a highly revered rotating ring amulet consecrated by Luang Phor Chue Nimmalo, one of Thailand’s most respected masters of prosperity-focused Buddhist blessings. This first edition ring, created for the 2008 Wai Kru (Teacher’s Homage) ceremony, is considered among the rarest and most desirable pieces associated with his lineage.
Phor Chue was widely known—both in Thailand and internationally—as “The God of Attracting Money and Gold”, a title bestowed upon him by devoted followers due to the consistent reputation of his amulets for fostering prosperity, success, and protection.
Sacred Meaning and Buddhist Intent
Luang Phor Chue explicitly stated that the consecration of the Phaya Tor Ngern–Tor Thong Ring was focused on auspicious Buddhist blessings, particularly:
-
Good fortune and prosperity
-
Successful negotiations and business dealings
-
Gaining favor, trust, and forgiveness from superiors
-
Transforming misfortune into opportunity
-
Enhancing popularity, compassion, and respect
-
Supporting flourishing trade and financial stability
In addition to material success, the ring is traditionally believed to brighten a gloomy aura, ward off illness and danger, protect against enemies, and provide spiritual safeguarding from negative influences.
Symbolism: The King Wasp (Phaya Tor)
A distinctive feature of Luang Phor Chue’s designs is the use of the King Wasp (Phaya Tor) as a central symbol. This motif is entirely original to his creations and carries deep traditional meaning.
In ancient Thai belief, abandoned wasp nests were often hung in homes or shops as offerings, symbolizing:
-
Continuous wealth and prosperity
-
Endless abundance and sustained income
-
Enhancement of astrological fortune
-
Longevity and protection for household members
The King Wasp represents diligence, productivity, cooperation, and the ability to accumulate wealth steadily—qualities closely aligned with Buddhist livelihood ethics.

Reputation and Rarity
This first edition ring was extremely popular among Luang Phor Chue’s disciples and collectors, resulting in limited availability shortly after release. Due to demand, two to three subsequent editions were later produced; however, the original 2008 Wai Kru edition remains the most sought after and is now considered genuinely rare.
