Need some help getting started this morning? Try these. When doing the last one do it in your head first.

I am going to ask you three questions. And you have to answer them instantly. You can't take your time, you have to answer immediately.

OK? Let's find just how clever you really are.

Ready? GO!!!

First Question:

You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person.

What position do you finish?

Answer:

If you answer that you arrived first, then you are wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you arrive second!

To answer the second question don't take as much time as you took for the first question.

Second Question:

If you overtake the last person, then you arrive...?

Answer:

If you answer that you arrived second to last, then you are wrong again.

Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST person?! You're not very good at this are you?

Third Question:

Very Tricky math! Note: This riddle must be done in your head only and NOT using paper and a pen. Try it.

Take 1000 and add 40 to it.

Now add another 1000.

Now add 30.

Another 1000.

Now add 20.

Now add another 1000.

Now add 10.

What is the total?

Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100. Don't believe it?

Check with your calculator! The decimal sequence confuses our brain, which always jumps to the highest decimals (100s instead of 10s).

That should have you in a bad mood for the rest of the day! You ARE the weakest link.

Good-bye!
