Engineers and scientists will never make as much money as business
executives. Now  a rigorous mathematical proof that explains
why this is true :

Postulate 1:  Knowledge is Power.
Postulate 2:  Time is Money.

As every engineer knows,

  Work
---------- = Power
  Time

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

  Work
----------- = knowledge
  Money

Solving for Money, we get:

  Work
--------------- = Money
  Knowledge

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

Conclusion:  The Less you Know, the More you Make.
