The less you know, the more you get paid...
It's widely held that ignorance rises to the executive level, with a concurrent rise in pay; but, until now, we've had only anecdotal evidence of such. Well, finally, a formal proof is to be had.
1) Axiom - Knowledge is Power
2) Axiom - Time is Money
3) Power = Work / Time (Classical Physics)
4) Knowledge = Work / Money (substitution)
Therefore, Money = Work / Knowledge.
Thus, for any given amount of Work, Money approaches Infinity as Knowledge approaches Zero!

Right, now we know where we went wrong. Pursuit of knowledge and not power! Damn!
