Since many of our number appear to be in the process of educating
themselves, I toss the following tidbit out for their edification.

Dilbert's Theorem on Salary states that Engineers, Teachers, Programmers
and Scientists can never earn as much as Business executives and Sales
people.

This theorem can now be supported by a mathematical equations based on
the
following three postulates:

Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power (Knowledge = Power)
Postulate 2: Time is Money (Time = Money)
Postulate 3: (as every Physics student knows): Power = Work/Time

It therefore follows:
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
