Mathematical proof that the less you know, the more you make

Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.

Postulate 2: Time is Money.

As every scientist knows,

Work = Power * Time

Since Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, we have:

Work = Knowledge * Money

Solving for Money, we get:

Money = Work / Knowledge

Thus, as Knowledge decreases, Money increases, regardless of how much Work is done.
