    The less you know the more you make

    Engineers and scientists will never make as much money as business
    executives will. Now, for the first time we have a rigid Mathematical
    proof that explains why this is in fact true.

    Postulate 1: Knowledge is power.

    Postulate 2: Time is money.

    As every Engineer knows, Work / Time = Power

    Since Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, we have Work / Money =
    Knowledge

    Solving for Money, we get: Work / Knowledge = Money Thus, as Knowledge
    approaches zero,

    Money approaches infinity, regardless of the amount of work done.

    Conclusion: The less you know, the more you make.

Working...
