Expressed mathematically: Knowledge = Power
Time is Money
Expressed mathematically: Time = Money
From physics, Power = Work / Time
So now we just replace a few terms:
PowerKnowledge = Work / TimeMoney
Remember, Knowledge IS Power and Time IS Money.
Or written more cleanly: Knowledge = Work / Money
Solving for Money, we get: Money = Work / Knowledge
Therefore, Money approaches infinity as Knowledge approaches zero, regardless of the amount of Work done. Perhaps this explains why executives at failed institutions are still making the big bucks!
