The Salary Theorem


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.
