    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    An old man dies, leaving behind two sons. In his will, he orders his sons to race with their horses, and the one with the slower horse will receive his inheritance.

    The two sons race, but since they're both holding their horses back, they go to a wise man and ask him what they should do. After that, the brothers race again — this time at full speed.

    What did the wise man tell them?

    Swap horses for the race
    After they switch horses, whoever wins the race will get the inheritance because they still technically own the losing (i.e., slower) horse.

    Now I know why they call you Batman!

    Riddle me this...

    the river is by a small boat, which can only hold the farmer and one of the three items.

    Left unsupervised, the chicken will eat the grain, and the fox will eat the chicken. However, the fox won't try to eat the grain, and neither the fox nor the chicken will wander off.

    How does the farmer get everything across the river?

    Take the chicken, go back then take the grain, take the chicken back with you then swap him for the fox, leave the fox with the grain and go back and get the chicken
