If you and a best mate were out and you forgot to get a lottery ticket but your mate kindly gave you a pound coin that they had because you didn't have cash on you and it was 2 mins before the deadline and that ticket won the jackpot

What would you do? Go 50/50 or keep it?

Fifty Fifty ........ you said they are a best mate.

Fifty Fifty it has to be.

I'd definately see my mate alright - when I got my glass eye

Seriously though I'm not sure I'd go 50/50 but I'd make sure he was well catered for

Thats 1 of the reasons I would never ever borrow money to gamble with and why I would never buy anyone either lottery tickets or scratch cards as any sort of present then I wouldnt be putting either myself or them in any sort of position

I'd give him his quid back if I'd agreed to pay it back at the time of borrowing. If not, he can fook off.

firstly i would pay for it by card.. to avoid these kind of situations... and secondly, if i was in that situation i would pay them back the £1 before the dra was called and if i won give them a portion of the money but not 50/50...

I'd give them the amount I would have given them if I had won the lottery without that pound.

Got quite a few best friends and some need the money more than others. They would also know that I would be likely to give up to 50% of it away to friends anyway, so they would be cool with whatever they received.

not sure about the 50/50 but they wouldnt go short

The problem with the 50/50 is why stop there? If they gave u the money and you acknowledge you wouldnt have won without them them why not give them the lot?

i think the smaller the amount the more likely i would be to split 50/50

A number of the Lottery ticket outlets insist on cash only sales...

Just in case the card is stolen or not valid for other reasons.

I am with those who would not necessarilly give 50%, but would definitely look to clear their mortgages, loans etc.

would you give em the quid back if you hadn't have won.... or would you wait for em to forget about it?

As an aside... people borrow money on credit card machines located oh so conveniently in bookmakers, social clubs and arcades (which I think is morally wrong as some can't responsibly control their gambling), but when they lose the banks still want all their money back

A real poser of a question!

People often say one thing and when, push comes to shove, do something completely different.

Lots of people come out of the woodwork when money is the subject. Many, for their own reasons, see nothing but pound signs when a family member dies. Many an argument ensues when settling estates.

There was a case, a few years ago, when two BEST friends had a verbal agreement to always equally share their bingo winnings. The arrangement worked brilliantly until one of the so called best friends won the National Bingo Game to the tune of just shy of £100,000.She refused to give her mate her equal share and much confrontation developed.

Eventually the other woman (the one who did not get her share) took her best mate to court to get her share...which she got with interest. A verbal agreement is often enough so long as witness can be borne.

The irony of the whole sorry episode was that the woman that won the money had borrowed the money (from her mate) to play because she was brassic. She had borrowed from her on numerous other occassions and not only paid back what she borrowed but also any winnings that she had won. It was a reciprocal arrangement.

Money can and often does alter peoples' train of thought. Money breeds greed and contemptuous alter egos.

The easy answer is not to borrow thus avoiding the potentially, catastrophic, situation.

A real best friend is someone who is there through thick and thin and they are a very rare breed.
