Why you should learn to use algebra . . . After applying some simple
algebra to some trite phrases and cliches a new understanding can bereached of the secret to wealth and
success.Here it goes. Knowledge is Power Time is Money and as every engineer knows, Power is
Work over Time.So, substituting algebraic equations for these time worn bits of wisdom, we get: K = P
(1) T = M (2) P = W/T (3)Now, do a few simple substitutions: Put W/T in for P in equation (1),
which yields: K = W/T (4)Put M in for T into equation (4), which yields: K = W/M (5).Now we've got
something. Expanding back into English, we get: Knowledge equals Work over Money.What this MEANS is
that: 1. The More You Know, the More Work You Do, and 2. The More You Know, the Less Money You
Make.Solving for Money, we get: M = W/K (6) Money equals Work Over Knowledge.From equation (6) we
see that Money approaches infinity as Knowledge approaches 0, regardlessof the Work done.What THIS MEANS is:
The More you Make, the Less you Know.Solving for Work, we get W = M K (7) Work equals Money
times KnowledgeFrom equation (7) we see that Work approaches 0 as Knowledge approaches 0.What THIS MEANS is:
The stupid rich do little or no work.Working out the socioeconomic implications of this breakthrough is
left as an exercise for thereader.
