Some of you have probably seen this one b4

Dilbert's salary theorem
Anonymous
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
Time = Money
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.
