Salary Theorem
The less you know, the more you make.

Proof:

Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.
Postulate 2: Time is Money.
As every engineer knows: Power = Work / Time
And since Knowledge = Power and Time = Money
It is therefore true that Knowledge = Work / Money .
Solving for Money, we get:
Money = Work / Knowledge
Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity, regardless of the amount of Work done.

Effing-A! Does this mean I am going to make less than I do now when I get my Master's? What about my doctorate?

Museum people don't make much...I'll have to pay to work there.

Well following on that logic...

Women = time * money
Time = money

and everyone knows money is the root of evil,

money = sqrt(evil)

Putting it all together we find

Women = money * money
Women = sqrt(evil) * sqrt(evil)
Women = evil
