This riddle MUST be done in your head and NOT using pen and paper.

  1. Take 1000.
  2. And add 40 to it.
  3. Now add another 1000.
  4. Now add another 30.
  5. Another 1000.
  6. Now add 20.
  7. Now add another 1000.
  8. Now add 10.
  9. What is the total?

Now Scroll Down ….

// \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \

Did you get 5000? Seems most people do. The answer actually is …

// \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \ // \

  1. Don’t believe it? Try it with your calculator.

Don’t you feel like an idiot? Well… This has been done by MANY. The result always being the same…

That’s right - that’s what I got. I guess people take the 4090, add the 10 and say VOILA 5000.

Those people are stupid. Gawsh.
