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
Since: Knowledge = Power,
then  Knowledge = Work/Time,
and Time = Money,
then 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
