Lottery tix - good for slipping into Christmas cards - but what if the ticket ends up being worth a million - ten million or even a thousand dollars.
How can you guarrantee your "friend" will do the right thing. Legally they don't owe you anything - 10 percent is nice but I being the giver would be hoping for an even split.
Only one thing you can do. When you buy the ticket - get one for yourself with the exact same numbers.
Makes it easy to check the numbers - Hey Tim Black! Did you win - nah - just a free ticket. Me too!
