Dilbert's "Salary Theorem" states that "Engineers and scientists can never earn as much as business executives and sales people."
This theorem can be supported by a mathematical equation based on two postulates:
- As every engineer knows: Power = Work / Time
- Since:
- Knowledge = Power
- Time = Money
Therefore:
Knowledge = Work / Money
Solving for Money:
Money = Work / Knowledge
Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity, regardless of the amount of work done.
Conclusion: The less you know, the more you make.

呆伯特(Dilbert)的“薪资定理”指出:“工程师和科学家的收入永远无法与商业主管和销售人员相提并论。”
该定理可以通过基于以下两个假设的数学方程来证明:
- 正如每位工程师所知:功率 = 功 / 时间
- 由于:
- 知识 = 功率
- 时间 = 金钱
因此:
知识 = 功 / 金钱
求解金钱:
金钱 = 功 / 知识
因此,当知识趋近于零时,金钱趋近于无穷大,无论做了多少功。
结论: 你知道得越少,赚得就越多。
