David Tepper's brass testicles

I've been trying to learn from some financial guru's about how to make more money, David Tepper has a great track record. Read the sentence in bold.

Mr. Tepper lives in a two-story home in New Jersey he bought in 1990 for $1.2 million. He recently purchased an ownership stake in the Pittsburgh Steelers football team, and flies to every home game. In 2004 he gave $55 million to Carnegie Mellon University's business school, his alma mater, which renamed itself the Tepper School of Business.
The husky, bespectacled trader laughs easily, but employees say he can quickly turn on them when he's angry. Mr. Tepper keeps a brass replica of a pair of testicles in a prominent spot on his desk, a present from former employees. He rubs the gift for luck during the trading day to get a laugh out of colleagues.
Hmmm, like rubbing a lamp with a genie? Who knew you could have financial success from rubbing a pair of testicles? I guess I'll have to try it, but since mine are missing, I'll have to buy a pair of brass ones. Where do you buy brass testicles? There are several companies, but I can't list them, it's a no no.
