You've got someone working for you for seven days and a gold
bar to pay them. The gold bar is segmented into seven
connected pieces. You must give them a piece of gold at the
end of every day. If you are only allowed to make two breaks
in the gold bar, how do you pay your worker?

Answer Posted / david

Well, what's the point if the worker spends the first piece
of gold bar on day 1 itself? After all he is getting paid
at EOD and he has to spend it to meet his needs. ;)
