Get your Goat

A farmer wanted to sell his goat so he took it to the market. After a short while, out came a man and asked the farmer, “how much for your goat?”
The farmer replied, “100 Dollars.”
The man agreed to buy it, so he took a hundred dollar bill out of his pocket in order to give it to the farmer but suddenly the goat jumped up and gobbled the bill up. The bill was swallowed and gone forever. Here is the question: Who owns the goat?

  The farmer owns the goat and the man that misplaced his $100 bill owns the next two days worth of goat steamers.

  You are correct.

  The farmer still owns the goat because the transaction was never completed.

  You are today’s winner.
