Way back when Adam West ruled the airwaves as the Caped Crusader, his arch-nemesis “The Riddler” would pose puzzles that, unless solved in time, would lead to dire consequences in ever-endangered Gotham City.
In that spirit – albeit absent any hint of danger – are three fun riddles posed recently online by Readers Digest magazine. Give each your best guess before checking out the answer in the associated PS below. Enjoy!
- I speak without a mouth and hear without ears. I have no body, but come alive with the wind. What am I?
- What is seen in the middle of March and April that can’t be seen at the beginning or end of either month?
- What disappears as soon as you say its name?
- What are the next three letters in this combination: O T T F F S S
No matter how you did, planning your retirement shouldn’t be a puzzle. Give us a call today at 513-563-PLAN (7526) or book online, and we’ll find a solution perfect for you.

PS1: This riddle attempts to trick you into thinking about body parts, but the answer’s much less literal – an echo.
PS2: This gets you thinking about holidays or the weather or something associated with that season and time of year. But instead, it’s spelling – the letter “r”.
PS3: You want to think logically here… and it is logical, but not in the step-by-step manner you might think – silence.
PS4: This is a hard one… until you realize that letters represent the first letter of a numeric sequence: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven – therefore E, N, T.
