Married couple wins the lottery and wife assumes she'll be able to quit her job, husband threatens her with divorce after she refuses to split winnings equally: ‘[She] started accusing me of being a gold digger’

Winning the lottery is, well, like winning the lottery! See what I did there?

One lucky scratch-off or choice of numbers can be your ticket to financial success. If you came into a large sum of money, what do you think you'd do with it? Would you tell anyone or keep it all to yourself? If you shared the ticket with a friend or partner, would you split it equally? My answer to all of these questions is, "It depends." One would hope that their partner would split the winnings with them, especially if they're married. A legal document doesn't mean a lot to a lot of people, it seems. Sure, forever is nice, but have you ever seen $500k in your bank account? Man…

In this next story, a man threatens his wife with divorce after she insists upon quitting her job and living off of their lottery winnings. The poster doesn't share the exact amount but suggests it is a life-enhancing amount rather than a life-changing amount. His wife then goes on many tirades, leading the poster to threaten her with divorce. Scroll to read.
