Topic: Couple won the jackpot but split soon after! - page 10. (Read 2002 times)

Issues been raised after winning? You are definitely right about women. They are decievers, manipulators, pretenders and totally crazy once that greed of money kicks in, right?
Im not really that generalizing but i could do such thing because i have a worst experience with women in the past on which i could say that they arent something to be trusted.
This is the sole reason on why i do make myself that not mindful about settling down or having that marriage thing, because i do really tend to search up the girl that would be something that not just only
good when you do have the money and could really be with you on those hardest times.

Sad stories because of this kind of sudden decisions because of the involvement of money. Love could be replaced and could be broken instantly if we do speak about huge amounts.
plans would be mold out into their minds and doesnt care on the current relationship that they are with. Theyre fucki'n selfish.

Or that chick has dodges a bullet, because what we know about that man from the story: the guy lived at her place, the guy asked her money for a lottery ticked, I am more than sure that it was his offer to go to celebrate with fish and chips (the chick would have chosen more fancy place). What if he was a looser and she dumped him?

Anyway, it will be fair to split or at least to share the prize. Because it was a joint decision to go and to buy that lottery ticket. Without each other actions and decisions, they would not have won that million.


Not protecting anyone, but a man who is dumped can go rage and cause physical harm A straight right or a heavy slap could be a minimum what she would get. Of course it is more safe to use a mediator in negotiations

This is a sick story.

The lady never loved that man, this makes it all clear

 Charlotte asked him via a friend to leave.

👆🏻 she asked the man to leave, via a friend, she can't even said it to his face directly, after they have celebrated the winning together and also have plans for the money, this is very cruel of the lady, I think the man is lucky, someone else could think about taking his life via poison or assassination.

Before reading the whole story, something in me already thought that the lady ruined it all, and I was right, this is the time she will see something wrong with the man, something that wasn't there before they won the ticket, if justice is to be served here, they must split the money into two, but I will like to ask the woman why now? Why is she letting go after money is involved?

Woman are crazy creatures, most of them are this deadly and you may never even notice it, until it get to the point.

True, there is no one that can resist money, but this article or situation proves that their relationship is not solid or that they can replace someone they love just for the sake of money. Maybe this couple started to have problems when they won a lot of money from gambling. Just the years of relationship are a waste just because you two get into arguments and result in their breakup. 

Well, so far, I haven't experienced this kind of scenario. I'd rather not win a lot of money through gambling if this might happen to me and my girlfriend. I prefer to have my own money through my hard work. I want to be successful undergoing the hardships or going through the successful path together with my girlfriend. In short, we are more likely to become successful while supporting each other, and if gambling is the cause of our breakup, I prefer not to gamble anymore because relationships are the most important to me.

The article later mentions that the transaction did go through but was delayed due to a bad signal. The cashier in the shop also confirmed it. Therefore, although she appears to be the legal owner of the ticket, it's actually him who paid for the tickets, and something like this can also be proved. In my opinion, since the ticket was bought by the two of them, the money should be split 50/50. It seems to me that she got greedy, and knowing that they weren't married and that the ticket was in her name, she could run away with the money and dump him. What a shallow human being.

In any case, this man dodged a bullet by breaking up with this woman.

The love of money is the root evil, you don't know the real character of a person until you see him/her handle money, I don't think this couple's relationship will last because they cannot resolve their conflict when it comes to money, money is one of the causes of the rift of relationships if they cannot pay the bills, and there is no food in the table the love for each other cannot last they should have a good and stable job to sustain their relationship, unfortunately, these two couples have not talked about how to address money in their relationship, so when an issue as bug as this comes out they do not know how to resolve, its better for the couple to either resolve it if they still love each other or let the court decide.

It will likely come down to a legal decision. From my moral standpoint, I understand the guy’s feelings that he deserves a share of the winnings since they were dating at the time, and he was planning to transfer her the money for the ticket. It's a shame that their relationship ended so badly, and it's even more unfortunate that the lottery winnings are now causing even more conflict. Hopefully, they can find a way to resolve this issue amicably, but it seems like they are headed to court.

You know the saying "Money changes everything."
I don't know who is lying and who is telling the truth, so maybe the 50/50 split is the best solution here.
If I had won the lottery, I would never split the jackpot with my significant other, but that's just me.
If you suddenly have lots of money, just end your relationship/marriage with your average looking wife/girlfriend and find a better looking girl. This might sound ruthless, but that's just how men are. You can't escape the human nature.
Those two were dating for three months. Are they really a couple? They don't have a marriage, so the woman can't insist on getting 50% of the man's property.
Anyway, this topic isn't about gambling. Why are you posting in the gambling discussion forum?

I think the girlfriend is only dumping him out of greed, she knows she can get half of the lottery amount that they won if they split. They're not married therefore that dude is lucky as this type of girl isn't someone he should be building a family with. She isn't a wife material unless she isn't the one at wrong and the guy have done something to upset her that she can't bare it anymore and asking for them to split. If both of them didn't play the lottery together, I don't think they should split it equally.

It'll be unfair to give someone 50% only because he was your girlfriend therefore more investigation should be done and if the winning of the lottery wasn't as a combination of their both efforts then the distribution shouldn't be done 50/50 but when the girl had a hand in the success of their lottery then she deserves to get her share of the prize. This is another reason why it's always good to gamble alone.

Totally saddening that the result was greed and not something outside of that lottery that have lead to them splitting up, it's really crazy what money can do to a relationship, now you're high on love and the next thing you know, you've won the lottery and now there's a crack and you're supposedly strong relationship. The way that things have happened, this is probably the saddest break up that I've ever heard, read or seen in awhile because it's such a pathetic thing that this is their end.
They've been dating for about 3 months so I don't think that they're strong as we think they are, some married couple might even be having this kind of problem too, it's entirely dependent on individual when they come across so much money.

Oof, after reading the article, it seems that it's greediness that takes over. Imagine, you are the guy and you didn't expect this but you want a part of it but you didn't do anything to be accountable. He should've been responsible and transferred the amount of the ticket. So technically, it's the girls, right to claim it. There's nothing he can do about it IMO. If he could've been responsible, it's possible that they could split it, but he didn't.

That's what happens when you two aren't married yet. It's easy to do that to your partner lol.

a very sad experience and I'm sure the relationship is not because of mutual love but because maybe the man can provide finances that can meet the woman's needs but after getting a big win from the lottery, the woman will kick the man as if she doesn't need the man anymore.
I said that the efforts made the woman were very bad and lasted for 3 months but everything changed when she got $1 million and what the woman did made the man hurt which could have a negative impact.
I'm sure everyone here has read the article and we definitely have the same thought that the power of luck is because the two of them are in a relationship so they are destined to get a big jackpot from the lottery and they should share it fairly or just a few percent is enough.

what worries me is that $1 million is not small money, but it is very large, whereas someone who usually doesn't have a big company suddenly gets a large amount of money which can trigger a crime, robbery, etc.
on the one hand, the woman has hurt the man's heart, which could mean that if the man is depressed, he could do something reckless to the woman.
well, that's what I'm worried about.


I have never experienced an incident like this and to be more precise, gambling is something that is risky and when I gamble I prefer to be alone and use my own budget because losing or making a profit is the only one who bears it rather than gambling with my partner or gambling with friends with a pooled budget. of course, when you get a big win it will have the impact of a fight because it's all about money which can make people greedy in a short time.

It's better to split the prize money evenly to avoid stress and fights. Ego battles will just make things worse. If ever I would be in that situation, I would rather talk it out and find a fair solution. It's all about being calm, and mature and understanding each other's feelings to resolve things peacefully.

Even if the guy is telling the truth, he made the mistake that every man does where they make decisions emotionally instead of being practical. If he hadn't had her name written on the back of the card, this rule of the owner being the person having their name written on the back of the card wouldn't bother him, but he didn't think of it this way, and they didn't know that they are going to win such a big prize when buying the tickets.

It's unfortunate for him if he tried to pay for the tickets but the transaction didn't go through and now she is using this point against him that she paid for the tickets and she is the legal owner of the tickets which is a valid point even if it's unethical and she shouldn't be doing this if they were in a relationship.

It's their choice, but if the whole story is true, she is not doing the right thing.

For me it should be split in half as it mention that both of them couldn't won it if wasn't for each other.
One of them made the suggestion to gamble while the other was the sponsor for the ticket.
If neither of them agreed on it then they wouldn't even won that jackpot.

Money brings out the inner color of some people. If she wanted the guy from beginning and was serious about it, she would have cashout the money and tell the guy they should start something together, maybe a business that will sustain them and then that's going to be the beginning of their journey but clearly, she doesn't give any shit about the relationship, she was just looking for a way to milk the guy and now that she has found a a jackpot, she now want to discard the man, typical greedy lady that can sell someone out because of money.

If the guy knows that he is going to win the case, he should proceed and if he knows that he is going to lose, he should let go, perhaps God use this money to test their relationship and she failed. If she doesn't have proper management, she will might buy a house with the money and use the rest for feeding, give her max of 2 years she will squander all of that money and have nothing again. The man should try his own luck next time, who knows if his going to win.

Windfalls of money, whether through gambling wins or lottery jackpots, can dramatically alter relationships and individual dynamics. While financial windfalls can bring moments of euphoria, they can also reveal underlying tensions or disparities in values and priorities within relationships. Your analogy to the jealousy and bitterness sometimes directed at lottery winners from family and acquaintances implies the complexities surrounding sudden wealth.

In the case of the couple you mentioned, it's unfortunate that their windfall did not serve to strengthen their relationship but instead led to a breakup. This outcome shows the importance of compatibility and shared values in relationships, as well as the potential for unexpected consequences when significant changes occur. While money can certainly provide opportunities, it's the strength of relationships and the bonds between individuals that ultimately determine their long-term success and happiness.

If the love is strong, money will bind them and make them stronger unfortunately one wants to get all of it the other wants to get a share, for a couple who wants to have a strong relationship, they should have a positive outlook about money and they should have the same concept about money since the relationship is new and they are not yet married I don't think this couple will become a husband and wife in the future, there's already deceit and lying involve in the relationship.
The worst that can happen it will land in court and it's going to be a long and bitter battle in court and its heartbreaking for the family of both couples.

There are many cases similar to this that have happened in the past, gaining vast amounts of money can really change people or it might just wake them up to the fact that they would otherwise not be together now they've got options available. It's somewhat like the jealously and bitter feelings that can build up towards lottery winners, coming from family and "friends" after they've been told about big wins and sometimes try to leach off the winners. It can often be wise to keep these large lottery wins secret in that scenario. However for this couple, they were probably never meant to make it long term if this moment of ecstatic happiness caused them to break up and did not bring them much closer together instead.

To resolve the issue, we need to identify the person who actually paid for the winning ticket, which is the girl. This person is considered the rightful owner of the ticket. If the ticket was purchased jointly by both of them who agreed to split the winnings after the fact, then that does not make all of them owners. However, in this particular situation, the man may be trying to keep half of the winnings for himself, despite that the woman is the one who purchases the ticket. This matter will need to be resolved in a court of law.
