Knowledge is Power

Knowledge is indeed power. However, it isn’t power just by itself as Martin stated. According to Martin, it can be a means for obtaining power, wealth, and status. Knowledge can help you gain control of money. Individuals and groups have the authority in certain knowledge hence, we ask for fees, jobs, careers, and status. I interpret this as us in today’s society. We (the experts) gain knowledge from college or somewhere else hence; we become the one with knowledge. The individuals and groups are referred to as entrepreneur and companies. We seek them for fees, jobs, careers, and status. And since there can be money and status from being the recognized expert, we sell ourselves to the one that pays most as Martin stated. Also we seek to serve those that are powerful.
