    The Less you Know, the More you Make

    Sorry this is old and should be in light relief, but here goes...

    Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.
    Postulate 2: Time is Money.

    As every engineer knows: Power = Work / Time .... (a)
    Since Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money .... (b)
    Substituting equation (b) into (a),we have:
    Knowledge = Work / Money .... (c)
    Solving for Money, we obtain:
    Money = Work / Knowledge .... (d)
    Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity regardless, of the amount of Work done.

    Conclusion: The Less you Know, the More you Make.

    Thanks anyway.

    Forget it. If it's important they'll get back to you.
