We all know people like mark, we will more than likely come into contact with people like mark.

no 10. says that all 10 statements are false. If no. 10 is true, then no 10 itself is false, which would in turn mean that it is actually true, but this would mean that it is false, and so on (liar's paradox)
Therefore, no 10 cannot be true which means that it must be false! Hence no. 1 is definitely true.
Next if no 9 is true, it implies that it is false (1 is already true because 10 is false) and that leads to another paradox so no 9 cannot be true. it must be false and no 2 is therefore true.
continuing like this we can assign truth values to all 10 statements.
1. true (since 10 is false)
2. true (since 9,10 are false)
3. true (since 8,9,10 are false)
4. true (since 7,8,9,10 are false)
5. true (since 6,7,8,9,10 are false)
6. false (cannot be true, since 1,2,3,4 are true)
7. false (cannot be true, since 1,2,3 are true)
8. false (cannot be true, since 1,2 are true)
9. false (cannot be true, since 1 is true)
10. false (cannot be true)
answer: 5 statements are true and 5 are false.
Therefore, no 10 cannot be true which means that it must be false! Hence no. 1 is definitely true.
Next if no 9 is true, it implies that it is false (1 is already true because 10 is false) and that leads to another paradox so no 9 cannot be true. it must be false and no 2 is therefore true.
continuing like this we can assign truth values to all 10 statements.
1. true (since 10 is false)
2. true (since 9,10 are false)
3. true (since 8,9,10 are false)
4. true (since 7,8,9,10 are false)
5. true (since 6,7,8,9,10 are false)
6. false (cannot be true, since 1,2,3,4 are true)
7. false (cannot be true, since 1,2,3 are true)
8. false (cannot be true, since 1,2 are true)
9. false (cannot be true, since 1 is true)
10. false (cannot be true)
answer: 5 statements are true and 5 are false.

To be honest I don't know the correct answer to this riddle.
Yours seem to answer it.

inflation reduces worth!
2007 > 2006, what's the question?
actually due to inflation it may be possible that
worth of 2007 pennies < worth of 2006 pennies

HINT:
It has nothing to do with INFLATION!!!
It has nothing to do with INFLATION!!!
I mean that due to inflation, the cost of making the 2007 pennies is> that 2006 pennies. 2007 pennies therefore worth more, because in reality, it cost more to produce.
