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:
(which we all accept as true)

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

As every engineer and scientist knows:

Power = Work/Time

Since: Knowledge=Power 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.
