The Less you Know, the More you Make?

Engineers and scientists will never make as much money as business executives.

Now a rigorous mathematical proof that explains why this is true:

Postulate 1:  Knowledge is Power.

Postulate 2:  Time is Money.

As every engineer knows: Power =  Work / Time

Since Knowledge = Power, and 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 Work done.

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