Here's a thing. My husband bought a $25 ticket and won grand prize in a club. $13K.

From it he wants to buy 3 bottles of Jim Beam worth $800 each. He wants to keep 2: 1 to drink at home and the other, reserve. The third one he wants to give back to the club. Is giving back to the club necessary? Like he won that ok, but the club didn't do anything but to randomly pick a ticket and he was lucky his got picked. I was saying he doesn't have to do it. All he has to do is enjoy his winnings or another good thing is maybe donate if he wants to. How about you? What do you think?

I would never pay 800 dollars for liquor. I would rather donate 2400 to a local charity than buying that. Also, no he doesn't have to give it but he's probably doing it to get perks next time he comes to that club.

10.6k, what did he do with the rest?

@empanadas it's a social club at work. I wouldn't want to waste that amount of money on alcohol too. We will discuss what he should do with the rest. Some will go to my daughter's braces/plates this year

@empanadas I sent him a lengthy message last night because he doesn't want to talk to me about it. He will realise and regret when he decides on spending that kind of money on alcohol.

@GunFinger oh he probably just wanted to celebrate a little with his coworkers. At least he didn't spend all of it. Don't be too hard, it could had been a lot worse
