Abhi Shah, who discovered a winning Diamond Millions scratch-off lottery ticket while throwing away discards at his family’s convenience store in Southwick, Mass., considered buying a Tesla, a house or perhaps another store. But the 30-year-old and his parents, who work at the Lucky Stop store, made a different decision: They gave the winning ticket back to the longtime customer who had thought it was a loser and tossed it. The woman tossed out the ticket, turns out it was a $1 million winner I was just thinking, would I do the same? What would you do if you found a million-dollar lottery ticket?
I think I would give it back. Then, I hope that the news would go viral and someone would start a GoFundMe to reward that honesty on my part. Not a million, but the gofundme would at least get me $125K : )
50 years ago, I might have kept it. NOW I am certainly giving it back -- if whoever owns it cannot be identified, to a few charities that I like to fund. And by the way, lottery winnings are taxable in USA (unlike a few other countries) and giving money away to charities is one easy way to get rid of it and not pay taxes.
That's a great gesture on the part of the shop owner. If I were in such a situation I would have given it to the customer too else sleep would evade me.But if I were the customer and if I was handed over the ticket I would certainly part some amount with the shop owner.
many are tweeting to elonmusk that he deserves a tesla for this kind act Replying to @elonmusk I think Abhi Shah deserves a free Tesla after giving back that million dollar lottery ticket. The first thing he thought when he scratched it was, “now I can get a Tesla”.
Liked their kind gesture and may their tribe increase. If I found a million dollar ticket or anything, definitely I give it to the real owner. I believe in something isn't mine, it doesn't stay with me.
Hello! I have been playing in the casino for a long time, there were winnings and losses. But only at the beginning, I didn’t bet much. But then I found a site Play European Roulette Online Free - Tactics and Rules | Roulette77 | India where you can watch casino reviews and tips and tricks, and then you can just enjoy the game.
