"Engineers and scientists will never earn as much as business executives and sales people."


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

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

This can be mathematically represented as:

1. Knowledge = Power
2. Time = Money

As every engineer knows:

Power = Work / Time.

Then it follows that:

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.

e.g. If Knowledge = 0

then Money = Work / 0 = infinity

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