In case you've ever wondered why ignorance rises to the executive
level, here is a simple explanation that is also a mathematical proof:

1) Knowledge is Power.

2) Time is Money.

3) And, as every engineer knows: Power = Work / Time

4) If Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, then Knowledge =
Work / Money.

5) Solving for Money we get: Money = Work / Knowledge.

6) Thus, Money approaches infinity as Knowledge approaches
zero, regardless of the Work done.

7) What this means is: The less you know, the more you make.

Bad News: If you understand this, then you likely have a large knowledge
base and therefore are subject to making less money.
