“That doesn’t seem fair to me since I bought the ticket, scratched it, and cashed it in for the money myself
A woman's post on the Reddit subchannel 'Am I The A-hole' sparked a debate after she won tens of thousands of dollars on a scratch-off lottery ticket — and decided not to share any of the money with her husband.
Instead, she put it aside for travel.
Her husband believes the money should go into their joint savings account to continue saving for items like a house or car.
“That doesn’t seem fair to me since I bought the ticket, scratched it, and cashed it in for the money myself,” the woman said. “We have a joint account but also separate accounts for spending. My husband isn’t owed half of the money just because we are married.”
As always, the Reddit community had varying opinions. Some questioned why they were married if she wasn't going to share the winnings while others agreed with her rationale.
