Knowledge = Power
Time = Money
Power = Work / Time
because Time = Money, and Power = Knowledge, solving the equation for Money we get:
Money = Work / Knowledge
the closer knowledge gets to 0, the more money you make. do you think this is true?

Your equation is flawed and therefore the conclusion is wrong --- period !!
Time (in and of itself) Does Not equal money
it is time at work (work being clearly defined as productivity in one form or another)
And, knowledge (in and of itself) is not necessarily Power --- it is superior knowledge effectively applied that equates to power !!
Power is ALSO equated to effective, superior productivity !!
The "premise" you state would have the lowest paid individual within any system of productivity being the most knowledgeable OF that system --- and the individual that was the highest paid -- the most ignorant OF that system--- and this is clearly NOT the case in almost any scenario that you could possibly outline---across the full spectrum OF work circumstances --- be it product---service---or technical !!!

My experience has been that as you progress in a career, using business as an example, the higher you progess the more your compensation is based on making decisions. This doesn't necessairly translate into knowledge. Your sphere of influence tends to become so broad that you can not have first hand knowledgeable on all the topics you have to make decisions on. You have to rely on your staff for the knowledge.

Money is in your heart. The bigger your heart, the richer you are.
The closer knowledge gets to 0, the less you know about anything including money, hence money becomes immaterial and you could feel you have lots of it -- probably in your heart where knowledge and judgment have no place.

Ugh...confusing stuff, but this is true, Because you are new to that subject and still gaining knowledge, helps you get up there faster. Like Bill gates,

No it should be work x knowledge not work/knowledge

I think it's a function of society.

The less you "worry about money" the more you make
Once you don't make money a priority , but happiness the wealthier you are;)

No it is not. Never believe that. If you do something, and you do it well, you will have all the work you want

It might be true according to your stats, but, what does work equal to?
