Quote:I'm assuming there may have been much more evidence in the trial that said they agreed if he won that they would split it.  Who knows....I'm just saying, my money, my winnings....unless we have an agreement.

 

Who knows if in the dream he was holding tons of money, but it was because the owner won and let him hold it.  lol

While I agree with you that if you're spending your money to buy the tickets, and you win, it should be your winnings.  However, as this case demonstrates, if someone helped you with the number selection, and they can prove it, there's a court out there that will side with them.  As ridiculous as it sounds, there's always a lawyer out there willing to take a case like this.  The funny thing is the winner is going to get half of the settlement, pay half of that in taxes, and a 1/3 of it to the attorney.  When the dust settles, there won't be a ton left to enjoy.
