The less you know…

…the more money you make? At least….that’s according to this theorem:

Engineers, Teachers, Programmers and Scientists can never earn as much salary as business executives and sales people.

This theorem can now be supported by a mathematical equation based on the following three postulates:

Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power (Knowledge=Power)

Postulate 2: Time is Money (Time=Money)

Postulate 3 (as every Physics student knows):

Power = Work/Time

It therefore follows:

Knowledge = Work / Time and since Time = Money,

we have: Knowledge = Work / Money

Solving for Money, we get:

Money = Work / Knowledge

Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity, regardless of the amount of Work done.

Conclusion: The Less you Know, the More you Make
