Koohii stories:

1) [rgravina] 1-6-2006(284): Mingling with the powerful can bring you success, bypassing the need for any merit.

2) [ashman63] 17-6-2008(88): There is great merit in mingling with the powerful.

3) [MeisterLlama] 22-3-2009(22): Once again Heisig makes a keyword that doesn't make much sense. The real meaning is effect/efficacy (take your pick). My dad tried out both wearing a top hat and doing some body-building for his muscles to see which was more efficacious .

4) [robertmyers] 6-12-2011(15): Father explained to me that the top hat merits attention because it signifies power…with the crowd that matters.

5) [DrJones] 2-2-2008(14): I'm the only one that instead of [mangling… powerful] sees [six… メカ]? All muslims should visit the Meca at least once in their lives, and many stop there. So, if anyone has visited the Meca six times, that has merit!!
