I have never given lottery tickets as presents, could you imagine giving someone a ticket like that.... At the very least you would hope the person wou;ld share the winnings but what if they didn't? On one hand you can't expect them too but on the other hand it would be the right thing to do.... What if you gave someone a million+ ticket and they bought you a compact car for thanks... :P

A Compact car!! LOL. Only if it was a TDI diesel that gets 50mpg!! Or a new Cummins pickup!

It definitely would be disappointing to not get a healthy percentage especially if it way say, 40-50Million.

Just split the ticket, say it was bought in partnership and split the winings.

Oh Well I can fantisize...

Happy Holidays to all. Greg L

OK, a fantasy thread:

I pay off the farm, hire a full time, full skilled caretaker, and enjoy warm and sunny weather untill about April... OK I may visit the farm a few times to play in the snow.!!

We got some from my mom - I won $3, my wife won $3, my son won $1, and my daughter won $18.

Not enough to whack her with a frying pan, I guess. :mrgreen:
