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 / 3dgie

OK, now it comes solution from civilized country.


both 'John' & 'Observer' are right, but still - this is
mid-ages. Now the right solution in 21st century is to open
an account for worker (sure he might have one). And transfer
money through internet.

As you are limited to break a gold bar and you're not
likely to force your worker in breaking a gold bar - you
make wise decision to transfer the money he earned through
internet. Before that, you see gold price on a market and
see how much you do need to pay for your employee. You
should noticed that there is no single word pointing out
that worker is doing coal mining in some exotic country with
no civilization.
