I just found sth nice about salaries of scientists…
Petro’s “Salary Theorem” states that:
engineers and scientists can never earn as much as business executives and sales people
and of course there is a mathematical proof for that, using known postulates:
Postulate 1: “knowledge is power”
Postulate 2: “time is money”
so here we go:
power = work / time (that’s highschool physics)
using the postulates it follows:
knowledge = work / money
solving that for money, we get:
money = work / knowledge
thus, as knowledge approaches zero, money approaches infinity, regardless of the amount of work done
=> the less you know, the more money you make
