Subject: Re: Death of money: 2 proofs


The following was created by my 16-year-old son, Michael, a CI member, along 
with one of his 
friends and should clarify everything:

THEORUM OF THE STUPIDITY OF MONEY

Ignorance=Bliss

Knowledge=Power

Time=Money

As any engineer will tell you, Power=Work/Time

"All work and no play makes one dull", translated into mathematical form:

100%Work+0%Play=Dullness

Simplified:

Work=Dullness

Since Dullness=1/Sharpness, and since Sharpness is a synonym for Intelligence,
and Intelligence is a synonym for Knowledge:

Work=Ignorance

(In other words, work is stupid).


Taking the engineer's equation and substituting Knowledge for Power, Ignorance 
for Work, 
and Money for Time:

Knowledge=Ignorance/Money

Solving for Money:

Money=Ignorance/Knowledge

Since 1/Knowledge=Ignorance:

Money=(Ignorance)^2


(In other words, you have to be a little stupid to have any money, and as you 
become more 
stupid your wealth will increase exponentially).

ADDENDUM

Money=Power

Knowledge=Power

Therefore, Money=Knowledge

Since Money=(Ignorance)^2

and Knowledge=1/Ignorance:

(Ignorance)^2=1/Ignorance

Multiplying through by Ignorance and taking the cube root of both sides:

Ignorance=1

Multiplying through by Ignorance:

(Ignorance)^2=Ignorance

Since Money=(Ignorance)^2 then

Money=Ignorance

In other words money is stupid.

Any questions? :)
