0 EventHorizon 15 Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 Spoiler "I'm a liar or I'm rich." Liar - Since he is a liar, the statement is true... so the liar cannot say it. Poor truthful man - Since he is neither a liar nor rich, the statement is false... so he cannot say it. Rich truthful man - Since he is rich, the statement is true... so he can say it. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
