In spoken Chinese, the term is two-character: liliang力量
But what you want for a tattoo is just li 力

Whatever you choose, make sure you research it thoroughly. Case in point: I have a friend who had a Chinese symbol for "spirit" tattooed on her neck. One day, we went to Chinatown for lunch when we noticed people pointing at her tattoo and laughing, so we asked our server why, and he asked my friend what she thought her tattoo meant. It turns out her tattoo said "s-l-u-t" and not spirit. So just be careful.

PLease don't get a tattoo of a chinese character unless you are chinese, its just tacky. Find a symbol from your heritage and use it.

I thought all the Chinese were concerned with was money and luck.
