AJ's girlfriend bought/gave me a "scratch" lottery ticket. ANd low and behold, I won $50... Question is should I give her the money or half or not?

I haven't had $50 in my pocket for years. ... SO can I keep it all or do I have to be nice and share.. I'm asking cuz I don't wanna share .. WOndering what other folks would do...

I didn't ask for the ticket.. SHe just out of the blue handed me three scratch and 2 power ball tickets.. Now If I should win the $248 Million on the power balls, I would of course have no problem sharing it with her.. But then winning the jackpot is only dreaming so that prob doesn't count.. Guess I prob should give her half of the $50 and do it with a smile/

Definitely not esp after all she's been putting you through. And don't tell her either
Thanks for this!

When someone gives something to you, its yours, wether it is fifty dollars or ends up in the garbage.

I don't think you need to be obligated to give her half the money. Perhaps buy her a nice slab of chocolate for the gesture!

Wow! Thanks Flooded.. SO then I don't have to feel guilty wanting to keep it...

I like your "way of thinking" Open Eyes...
