你的命，不能討價還價
NO BARGAIN ON YOUR DESTINY

Questions from various readers/clients.

Q1: Is your Bazi consultation fee negotiable?

Me: It is not negotiable.

Q2: If I see Bazi for me, my child and my spouse, can you give me a discount?

Me: I do not offer package deals.

Q3: I am keen in your Bazi and Feng Shui services. But I can't afford to do both at the same time. Do you think you can give me a better rate?

Me: Get one service at a time. Don't take on more than what you can. You can look for me again when you are ready.

.........

I do not apologise for my services having a fixed fee.

Because there is nothing to be sorry about.

The time and effort I put into every Bazi or Feng Shui audit is equivalent.

Whether we are friends/relatives in real life or strangers on Facebook.

There is no economies of scale for consultations.

It's not like if I read the Bazi of your whole family, I earn more with less effort.

The more people I help transform their destinies, the more negative karma I have to take over and the more merits I have to shave off from myself to give to the clients.

All of which I still have to engage in Buddhist cultivation practices to eradicate the negative karma I shouldered and restore my merits to a healthy level.

Or I would end up with a lot of problems for myself and my family.

My Shifu impressed this upon me.

That we should not allow people to bargain with a geomancer who has the ability and willingness to help.

This is not like buying broccoli at the wet market, where you haggle freely with the vegetable seller.

"Aiyah, I am buying 3kg of broccoli instead of the usual 1kg. Give me a discount! I am your regular! I also want some free chilli! What? You can't give me? That seller in the next row is so much more generous than you! His veggies are also much fresher!"

If you want to use such tactics on me, go away. I don't sell myself out for clients.

If you are indeed my regular client, for all the value I have bestowed upon you and your family, way beyond the angpow you gave me, your conscience should know better than to take advantage of me.

If you view your destiny at the same value as a stalk of green broccoli, go work on your mindset first before seeking a geomancer's help.

Your life is precious. The practitioner who can help you turn your life around is just as precious.

The knowledge and experience I have gained as a practitioner came at a very high price.

A price I dare say you will not be willing to pay.

Time that I could have spent with family and friends, I spent it all on learning Chinese Metaphysics and the Dharma.

There are close friends, friends that I grew up with, whom I have never met in 10 years.

There are travels that I never went with my Husband.

Do I regret? No. Time is always against us. Tomorrow may never come. I don't have a long and healthy lifespan and I want to see what I can make out of it.

To be very strong in our chosen field requires dedication. Even more so when my profession evokes mixed feelings in people.

Should one day my friends and family run into trouble, lending them a shoulder to cry on may relieve them somewhat.

Being able to solve their problems would be even better. And I have already done it with my abilities more than what I can count with my fingers and toes.

I am a realist. This is what I have chosen.

I also have an innate obligation to be fair to all my past clients.

The client who flew in from Malaysia on a one-day trip just to get his Bazi read by me. He earns in Ringgit, pays me in Sing dollars.

The young man in his early twenties who had to find out his birth details secretly, so that he could get his Bazi read by me.

The young woman who married her first love but landed up in an unhappy marriage, because she listened to the wrong advice from another practitioner. She saved for almost 4 months before approaching me.

The father who worked as a property agent but accumulated a 6-figure debt because of all the courses he took up and an elder brother who cheated him of his rightful commissions. I was the 7th or 8th practitioner he approached because none solved his problems previously.

The self-employed young man whose girlfriend hopes to get married but is very insecure about his volatile finances.

The middle-aged woman who did not know what to do with her life, after her company closed down.

The workshop participant who couldn't pay my workshop fee in one shot. She asked to stagger her payment. Transferred me one portion and paid in full at my workshop.

And the single Mother of two teenagers who chalks up a 5-figure debt with the banks. She got her Bazi read by me after attending my workshops and became one of my biggest success stories. Her physical transformation was amazing.

A few months later, she sought my help to read the Bazi of her two daughters. One was having her O-Levels. She wanted to know the best way to help her beloved daughter. At the same time, she was puzzled why her daughter was always adamant about having her around the home when she studied. Shouldn't a teenager at 16 years old be more independent in studying? Not like my client could help in anyway.

My answer ignited light bulbs in her and I gave her further solutions to help her child ace the examinations. I guided her to the junior collages best suited for her child.

Did her daughter ace the O-Levels?

You bet. The client thanked me in person after her daughter got the results.

Was it all due to my help?

No. She was already strong in her academics. I helped to make the studying process easier and happier for both the Mother and the child.

Never once did all these clients and more bargained with me for a cheaper price.

Some of them are repeat clients and workshop participants.

Maybe they thought of it but never verbalise their thoughts.

Or they really believe in the value I can give them.

My point is...

How can I let them down by giving you a cheaper price, just because you dare to ask?

How would I be fair to them, for the struggles and obstacles they surmount in wanting to transform their fates?

Perhaps you may try to wriggle your way further by saying,

"I promise you I won't tell anyone. It's just between you and me."

Don't be dumb.

The Heavens will know. The Earth will know. My Dharma Protectors will know. My powerful Shifu will know.

No one escapes from karma.

Even if I have the David Copperfield magic to escape, I will not do it.

That moment my clients choose to put their destinies in my hand, it becomes more precious than what money can buy. My motherly instinct will kick in and I will wish to protect their trust in me.

No matter what they may think of me after the consultation.

Another food for your thought...

If I can give you a discounted rate, how will you know I am not giving another person an even cheaper rate because of whatever reason?

Are you sure a practitioner of yoyo fees and values is someone you can fully believe in?

A layman like you, how can you tell that this practitioner will not stinge in giving you suggestions and solutions, since he/she is charging you a cheaper rate?

When you have the ability to pay, don't ask for discounts, especially for something as treasured as your own destiny. Don't behave like a miser. Have a pretty heart.

If you don't have the ability yet, save up first. Don't bite off more than what you can chew.

I charge almost $400 to read a Bazi for about 1.5 hours.

GASP! How expensive!

Yes, go look for a cheaper alternative.

According to my clients, they have never met a practitioner who is as thorough and detailed as me in reading their Bazi.

(Unless they find my Shifu. 😄 )

Not all practitioners are the same. Don't measure us only by our fees.

Another thing.

If you have paid so much for my consultation, yet still do NOTHING to change your destiny for the better, then don't look for me again.

You may be better off donating the money to a charity instead.

It's not what you know that matters.

It's what you do with what you know that matters.

⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯

命運不能討價還價，而且我有責任對所有的客人，過去及現在的，一律公平。

如果我不是一個公平的師父，那你也不宜找我，因為你也不知道我會不會給別人更便宜，間接騙了你。

⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯

That night when I asked to take a wefie with the Husband.

The lighting from a huge signboard in front of me was amazing. #selfie101

I was in a $90 new Zara jumpsuit and flamingo pink tassel earrings that cost me $30.

I heart the colours so very much.

Yet the only thing that got his undivided attention was Liverpool's match results that night. #cannotseelatermeh #woesofaFengShuipractitioner

Shhh... don't tell him. But I guess I need to step up my Feng Shui war against his teenage obsession for his favourite soccer team.
