When we were freshmen in HS...my friend was with his aunt (we were like 15), and she had him run into a store and get a $3.00 scratchie. She gave him the $3, but he scratched it......$50,000. So they settled on splitting the money. He bought a nice Stang, computer, surround sound system, huge TV, gave some to his mom. I swear it seemed like he spent it in a week LOL! ($35,000 after tax...divided by two...about $17,500 each) We would just be sitting in his room, he'd just start throwing $20's around haha.

And in case you didn't believe it (he wasn't shy about it)...he got a stack of receipts for proof. If it were me though, I woulda kept my mouth shut haha...maybe just tell him, and very few other people.
