Right. Because if mom's (alleged) win hadn't been revealed to the public her daughter wouldn't have been able to (allegedly) steal it after mom had the daughter claim the prize.

Is it your fixation or just plain stupidity that makes you post things that are so incredibly stupid

Verbal agreements aren't worth the paper they're printed on.

Only in the rarest cases, such as this one: The secret millionaires next door can you keep your win a secret from your family. In that case, the couple didn't change their lifestyle, kept their jobs and lived the same life as they did before the win. Maybe, just maybe, you might be able keep your win a secret from distant and far away cousins or other kinfolk, but I would wager the news would spread from one family member to another at literally the speed of sound. You're dreaming if you think y... [ More ]

This is why to option to remain anonymous is very important. Winners come under enormous pressure from family members after a winner's identity is published.

Correct.

Once the adults are over 18, each carries a legal obligation of their own on wins and loss's, assets and taxes.

This is not a moral issue. It's a legal one. Oral contracts are tricky, as we are noticing.

Aren't lottery tickets are similar to bearer bonds - you bear it (have it in your hot little hands when you cash it in) you own it. - which would make daughter winner

Get everything in Writing. The old notion Blood is thicker than water can turn out to be nothing but . Kids have been throwing their parents under the Bus for years now. They drop them off at retirement centers and only send greeting /Christmas/ birthday cards when they feel like it.Money changes people- doubt it?- Look here!

Say Music, l hear that they have lottery vendor machines in laundamats in LA- true

zephbe, . Mom thought she had a verbal agreement with her daughter. Written agreements hold up better in court.

The store camera may show the Mom purchasing the ticket.

All lottery players should dress up for their camera shot when they buy their tickets. LOL

Why don't they just split the winnings and be done with it? Each will have lots of money to try to win again. Did the store where the ticket was purchased not have a camera to see who bought the ticket

Point well taken. We'll never know about her upbringing

Apples don't fall from the tree, whatever she learned Mom, she learned it from you.

Seems like the 2 sides of the story the truth may lay in the middle somewhere.
