Knowledge is Power.
Time is Money.

And, as every engineer knows:

(1) Power = Work / Time

If Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, then substitution into equation (1) shows that:

(2) Knowledge = Work / Money

Solving for Money, we get:

(3) Money = Work / Knowledge

Looking at equation (3), by keeping Knowledge constant, if Work increases, then Money increases.  However, if Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity regardless of how much Work is done.

What this means is that: The Less you Know, the More you Make.
