When Reading Too Much Physics

When Reading Too Much Physics

The perfect illustration of the first law of academic thermodynamics: knowledge increases while financial stability decreases. This poor soul has clearly spent enough time with cosmology textbooks to understand the universe's accelerating expansion, but not enough time with a financial advisor to prevent his own economic collapse. It's the classic physics student paradox - smart enough to understand dark energy, not smart enough to realize those textbooks cost more than a small planet. Next semester he'll discover that his student debt is expanding faster than the observable universe - a phenomenon even Einstein never had to calculate.
