A father had 2 sons and he wanted to giveaway his whole wealth only to one son who is intelligent of both. One fine day, he asked his 2 sons to win the competition he set for them. The competition is, each one will be given a horse each to race and win the competition. But the trick is, whose horse reaches the winning line last wins the race. They started the race and kept on wandering all over the earth for days and years in order to reach the line second, only to understand this doesn't work out. On one lucky day they came across a wise man and asked for a solution. Soon after they heard from him, they started running towards the winning line like anything.So guys, here's the question for u... if u were the wise man to suggest them, what would u say?

The wise man had said that "whoever loses the race (that is whoever came first )would get all the wealth of their father".

As the father had never said that he would give away the wealth to the winner of the race.

 The wiseman said that whoever was foolish enough to wait for the other one to reach the line first wont get the wealth of their father

An intelligent person would realise that its not possible to win this race by wasting his time waiting for the other person to cross the line or by any other means.

Both of brothers should exchange their horses so that both of the brothers look forward for winning the race.

Definetly one person is the winner.
He will take all the money.

His father said "Whose horse Reaches the Line last will win the race"!
So if I were the wise man I will advice those persons to change their horse and to start a race!
