Topic: Couple won the jackpot but split soon after! - page 9. (Read 2004 times)

One of the most toughest situation is that whenever they do have those kind of denials and trying to own everything just because you cant be able to provide something that you had made out some agreement. This is why when it comes to money then you cant really be able to trust up someone and this is something that do really sucks when someone do put you up on such hard situation or
even getting blamed or ended up having nothing just because they do own the ticket or using up their own money or something which it could really make your blood boiled up.
Well, just like on what most people been saying here which is true that money could changed up anyone on point and dont mind about the relation that they do have with other person.

when couples reach a point where they can sense what might their partner think or do whenever they achieve financial success, there is already a barrier between them. even if they love each other, behind their minds is something else. learning to trust each other will be needed. and not ignore the other like deciding something while the other isn't aware of it might cause commotion.

in their case, someone could be behind that causes this like a brother/sister or a friend who whispers their ears putting an idea regarding who has more share.

Not that surprising because they arent married, much as people think its old fashioned it does help legally when any dispute like this comes up.   The Lottery wont change their minds and help him split it as all indicators are she paid for the ticket simple as that, the owner always has the rights in a dispute.    
 
Same reason to be cautious of syndicates also, ideally there  is some standard form to fill out by all players so that nothing can be disputed later.  I knew someone who ran a syndicate, on a big win (sub million) he just said well it was my own ticket so its all mine.  They hadnt recorded exact numbers apparently etc.  details matter.

They had already split anyway, so there's no more trouble. The woman already claimed the money, she was the one claiming it because she was the one who purchase it, while the man is only after if he could have the 50% since  they were together. That's how sad the reality of the world is, money can reveal a person's true identity,  and in this case, it was the woman who has the right, so whatever the man will do, he can't change the reality.

It is not surprising, actually. Just think about it: there has been people who were doing okey, going through their life working hard and saving some money, until they win the lottery and in a few months or a year they somehow manage to get back to a situation of poverty; perhaps even worse than their initial state when they decided to play lottery.
If those results are to be expected when someone wins the lottery by their own, then when the lottery or jackpot is to be divided between two or more people it becomes very much likely things could go wrong with the distribution and the money and the inter-personal problems between those who are supposed to share it all.
At least, this is a story which had a relatively happy or neutral ending, there have been cases about people who had been decades together, married and then one of the people in the relationship decided to poison or murder-for-hire their partner, for the sake of money.
Besides, let us be honest, we are just talking about three months, not enough time for them to fully know each other, at that stage of a relationship people are just beginning to open to each other. 

They both alive the there is still money, so all it is good.

The woman is not the only one who is at fault here so she is the only one to blame, They both became greedy for money and both are invincible because of their own pride. It's easy to solve that kind of problem, both should just agree on a 50/50 split especially since they haven't been dating for that long, they haven't been married yet so it seems like it would be difficult if you go through legal ways, too much of trouble and hassle on both sides.

That's what the friend said, that the guy ain't good to the woman (her friend). But that could also be biased because she just won a scratch ticket, there's a chance the winner asked the friend to say that in exchange for payment or something else.
This is a story where both parties should be heard but I think they will both lie on their teeth and create more stories just to look good on the judge.
I mean, that's a lot of money and I bet they are both ready to make things up just so they will have a part of it, especially the guy who I think has a low chance to receive a part of that money.

Considering his stance, he will have a hard time getting a split. I bet there will be a new deal but I doubt it will be half of the winning. I am guessing 20-30 percent of the money only but it will never be 50 percent. Plus, the dad of the woman seems to be helping too and who knows if all those decisions came from him which is why the woman cannot face his boyfriend when she split up. Through a friend only and it's possible someone else made the command.

I have noticed that many blame chick for making a decision to split and she wants to keep whole prize. I am sure there were reasons to do that. If their relationships were healthy, she or he would not make moves in the past and right now to split. Maybe that guy was a troublesome. Maybe there were no more magic between them. I dont know their whole background, but I cant blame for leaving that man. I can only blame her for decision not to split the prize.

I think something, we or well most men when we earn money and have our partner our family, at least I think about them everything to give them what they need, for my wife of course yes, I give her everything I can. my reach, but that's what some of us think, I don't know about the woman, the woman with that who now feels very empowered and all those things that are happening currently, they evaluate, some, but I could say that the vast Majority start from what They need a man, they can live alone without men, but if it is a couple where the woman has more Money than the man , she has to like him a lot, but the woman can usually leave him if she sees that financially she is superior, in fact a friend says that , that as a man he works for his family and for his wife , he shares his money for them, if there are no children for his wife , but in the case of the woman who has money she Leaves the man.

This is very relative, it could be like that, maybe not, what happened is that he is much older than me and he is one of those people who tells them that they are "old foxes" and they almost know that. all of them, because of their experience and Everything they have been through, and if they have been quite terrible people with one woman and another, changing women and having no wife and with other women, well that is only what many can think, having a woman freedom finciaera and being self-sufficient can make the decision to leave and leave the man alone, then that is something that can happen and in fact happens, at least in my Country things already look like that, I don't know, it may be that the culture in other countries So change.

Seriously, I just think the two couples don’t love each other, because if they really love each other, then money shouldn’t separate them. I don’t just know the kind of love they have for each other. After gambling and hitting a jackpot, they should just come to an agreement on how they are going to share the money among themselves, it shouldn’t get to the level of separating. They can just divide the money equally, and they are going to continue with their relationship. Both of them are entitled to the win, so they just have to share the money equally.

I haven’t been in a situation like this before, and I don’t think I will be in one because my partner doesn’t really like the idea of gambling, she just can’t stop me from gambling because she knows that’s what I do to have fun and am not addicted to gambling. But If she is having any way which she will stop me from gambling, am sure she will do that.

If a situation like this happens, then I will just have to bargain with my partner, if she really wants to spill the money, and I will ask her how we are to divide the money. If the percentage she is requesting is lower than my own, then I am fine, but if the percentage she is requesting is higher than mine, then we will have to share it equally.

Thats some greedy check you have there.. As far as i read up that they arent still married. So how she have a kid? hmmm.

In regarding on what you have said on not needing your partner when you do have the money. Lets talk about on the women side on which i could say that this is partly true, Why?
Based up on real experience on which on the time that my wife do make some huge income which is way more than on what im earning then you could really sense the change of authority
on which respect and control and being manipulative is already there.Whereas these things didnt exist on the time that she still getting your salary but on the time that they are
also earning big then this is where things do change up which it do really sucks.

For husbands then i dont see for it to be that something could happen since from the start, it is really that our main responsibility on raising up our own family.
There's no sense of being that too boastful because you are the provider.

That's the power of money for you, it amplifies the characters of humans and that is exactly what happened with the two pairs and I could bet that if the money or lottery hadn't been won I doubt both parties will fail to see their flaws but now that there is money involved everyone wants to claim the higher portion and also the right of possessing it all. Sharing the money equally would have been the fairest thing to do but at the state of pressure covering the amount of money won, I doubt if any of the both parties ever taught of that.

all i can say is that that woman is also not so naive in life. when a person has money like that, they find independence and will not need the man in her life for a time being. but the same with the man, having such an amount of money, he can buy a sexier woman in his life.

they didn't say what is the reason for the break up or i missed reading it. but pretty much the money has something to do with it. the woman also has a kid which i think she thinks she wants the kid to benefit more off this money so i can understand the pursuit to take it all.

We cannot make our judgment here since it was a personal relationship, and they are the only ones who know what's happening within the relationship and whatever problem they are dealing with causing the split-up. The money won was really huge. If we look at the legal parlance, it was the woman who owns the ticket since she was the one who bought it, so legally she isn't required to split the winnings. But the man is claiming they should split since they were in a relationship; that could happen but with the approval of the woman. Without such approval, he can't force claiming he has the right.

In cases like this, we can only give comments based on the law of the land, and that's my stance regarding the issue.

As i have said that im not generalizing all women to be on this way but due to my own experience in the past or when im still on teenage to college days on being on a relationship then i could say that you should really be that careful on choosing with your partner for the rest of your life. You should have that standard of course and if something that make you feel that being choked then better skip and look for another one as simple as that. Somehow you shouldnt really be expecting for those to be perfect on your checklist since we know that there's no such thing about being perfect on which there would really be those flaws of course as so are you. The important thing on here is that you do both love each other and you would really stick up and love one another neither you do have money or not.

This means that there is a question mark in this matter, what I mean is that there seems to be another problem outside of the jackpot issue that made them decide to separate in the end, because if it is true that this couple loves each other it means that winning the jackpot should be a happy situation for both of them because of course it is money that they can use to create a business together or even plan to allocate the money for their wedding expenses, but what happened was the opposite where this couple decided to separate. On the other hand, I think that one of the couple was greedy enough in life that he probably claimed that it was his jackpot and the purpose of the separation was so that they could enjoy the winnings to the fullest. Another thing is that I have to agree with your idea that this is a situation that indirectly makes you realize that it turns out that it is not a suitable partner for you to keep, at least with this incident they can get wisdom that it turns out that the person they love is not the right person to take in a more serious direction.

You are right, maybe she doesn't know a safer place to break the relationship but that's not even a problem, my curiosity is tingling like a spider sense, asking why now of all those times they have been together, it's scary what women can come up with when money is involved, they are sometimes scary.

Women tend to break up not in an instant, it must have been in the mind before they win the lottery, I suspect that she was just using the guy all along to get by everyday, surviving, sigh!

I hope they split the money in the end, it doesn't matter who bought the ticket and who originally have the money, if relationships are meant to be broken the moment we net high amount of money, then most hope won't be together today, money hungry people shouldn't be confused as a soul mate or life partner, be careful when choosing who to date or marry.

Since there are legal cases involved now, then I hope we can get an update on what will happen here.

I will put the situation in this way;

.. if they truly loved each other, money would not be split but rather shared.
.. if they did not love each other, then let the court or authorities do the solving depending on whatever agreement they can be settled with.

For me, it's a blessing in disguise that such a problem happened since at least their true colors are revealed before they can get married.

You can’t blame him for having trust issue because experienced it personally. It’s easy to say that you will find the right woman but it’s really hard in reality to trust someone if you knew that it can turns out the same. It’s same as gambling that you will need to risk in able to gain. You knew that you can lose on your bet which is trust issue come to confused your next decision.

I don’t any experience with this kind of relationship but it’s important to establish first deep connection through friendship before entering to marriage so that you can analyze first what kind of woman you are marrying. On this story, the couple will not split up if they both didn’t become greedy. The husband is also at fault because he wants to solo the winning amount leaving his partner behind.

Well, not all women are after mens money LoL. It's not because you've experienced something like that that you will imprint in your mind that they all have the same actions and intentions. You will surely find the right woman for you, the one who will help you in everything, support you and most of all, will not leave you or change you for money.
