    Today I was at the store buying beer and cigarettes and decided to buy a lotto ticket. I RARELY buy a lotto ticket, something just told me to buy it even though its "ONLY" 12mil . I know the lady at the register and in a friendly way "threatened" her that my ticket better be a winner and if it was I said I'd split it with her..

    Now honestly speaking, after thinking about it, I really would do it, even though it was said in passing conversation...

    I REALLY want people to think about this before they answer... would you REALLY split it evenly?

    would you?

    P.S. I swear on my future kids life, if I where to win I WILL go back and split it evenly with her. here's to hoping I win

    Did you see it? It's about the same subject.

    Honestly, I don't think I'd split it half and half. I think I'd give the person a percentage ... but it wouldn't be half.

    You arent going to win. So there is no need to worry.
    If I do, I will pay $2,000 for you to print that sentance and eat the piece of paper

    I know Its improbable that I will win... but one can dream.

    And Kori... I think I might be able to schooch around in life with 6mil after taxes. It might be a tough life but Im strong

    I'd do it. You always gotta pay stuff like that forward. Money doesnt' mean when you have bad karma.

    I'm just saying in my case I'd give some to people I know, so I wouldn't have 50% available for the store clerk.

    A percentage sounds right. I say 10%.

    actually you cant split that with the lady who sold that ticket to you, i think there is stipulations in contracts between lottos and vendors........no bribery corruption . Have you ever in history seen anyone split a winning with a vendor of lotto tickets, no.

    Well, the Lottery Commission does pay the people who sold the ticket a certain amount of money.

    Because of the chick-flick & Nicholas Cage 'ho that I am, that's one of my favorite movies.


    I'd definitely give her something, bad Karma does suck.

    Tell the cashier that the bookies were after you, and you had to give them it all.

    Where did you get 6 mil after taxes? If you did cash option then you will have about 6 mil BEFORE any split and taxes...figure the IRS gets half of that and you will end up with about 1.5 mil after tax if you split it 50/50.

    I may be stealing Mr. Dictionary's thunder here, but the word "split" does not necessarily mean "to divide evenly."

    Function: verb
    Inflected Form(s): split; split·ting
    Etymology: Dutch splitten, from Middle Dutch; akin to Middle High German splIzen to split and probably to Old High German spaltan to split
    transitive verb
    1 a : to divide lengthwise usually along a grain or seam or by layers b : to affect as if by cleaving or forcing apart <the river splits the town in two>
    2 a (1) : to tear or rend apart : BURST (2) : to subject (an atom or atomic nucleus) to artificial disintegration by fission b : to affect as if by breaking up or tearing apart : SHATTER <a roar that split the air>
    3 : to divide into parts or portions: as a : to divide between persons : SHARE b : to divide into factions, parties, or groups c : to mark (a ballot) or cast or register (a vote) so as to vote for candidates of different parties d (1) : to divide or break down (a chemical compound) into cons uents <split a fat into glycerol and fatty acids> (2) : to remove by such separation <split off carbon dioxide> e : to divide (stock) by issuing a larger number of shares to existing shareholders usually without increase in total par value
    4 : to separate (the parts of a whole) by interposing something <split an infinitive>


    Give her 50 grand and take the rest to the bank.

    Just hand her the keys to a Mercedes coupe convertable parked outside her store and she will be happy.

    next?
