Dilbert’s “Salary Theorem” states that “Engineers and scientists can 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:

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

As every engineer knows: Power = Work / Time

And since:Knowledge = Power And: Time= Money , It is therefore true that Knowledge = Work / Money Solving this equation 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.
