Thai Amulet enthusiasts have this trinity of amulets:
PHRA SOMDEJ, KHUN PAEN AND PHRA PIDTA. Different energies but one sources of strength, the Triple Gem.
Phra Somdej (The Centerpiece):
Known as the "King of Amulets", it is traditionally placed in the highest, central position on the necklace. It provides an overarching umbrella of supreme protection, life progression, peace, and general good fortune.
Phra Pidta (The Wealth & Shield Amulet):
Featuring a monk covering his eyes to block out external worldly temptations, this amulet is worn to bring financial fortune, business success, and severe defense against physical harm or black magic.
Phra Khun Paen (The Charma Amulet):
Named after a legendary Thai warrior, this amulet provides the wearer with Metta Maha Niyom (loving-kindness from others) and powerful charisma, which aids in negotiation, popularity, and career advancements.
Personally, I don't like wearing many amulets in my neck. One legit and working amulet is enough. I know Kathas that's legit and working so I just utilize those in every situation and usage. But I'm not against with people who like to wear many amulets, it's just happened that they want a built in power storage in different situations that they no longer need to chant. Just plug and play.
