Sophism #16: The More You Know - The Less You Earn

So like I have been doing it wrong all this time?

I remember grandparent's advice to always work hard, never throw away anything as it could be useful someday (even a washer found on the street), and attend church on Sundays.

The Knowledge = Power is wrong today! it is $$$ = Power.

And don't forget Parkinson's Law where "Work always expands to fill the Time available"
Think you better rework your formulas....

BTW Great First post on Blockchain, and I recreated all your graphs in Part 1 with python and sql.steemsql.com .... nice work!

This is a sophism, i.e. a seemingly reasonable proof of a wrong statement (check other sophisms in the series to see what I mean). So, don't take it too seriously.

Although this particular sophism is humorous, it does have a "logical flaw" in it as well. That is, if you think a bit, you can actually find a convincing explanation for what is really "wrong" here (besides the whole act of combining arbitrary quotes into "formulas", of course).
