Is an egg today better than a hen tomorrow?
This is a classic riddle! Here's the breakdown:
* Literally: An egg today is definitely better than a hen tomorrow if you're hungry and want to eat something. An egg is ready to eat, while a hen will take time to grow and lay eggs.
* Figuratively: This riddle plays on the idea of potential vs. present value. A hen represents the potential for many eggs in the future. An egg represents something tangible and immediate.
The answer: It depends on what you value more!
* If you prioritize immediate satisfaction, the egg is better.
* If you value long-term gain, the hen is better.
