I'm doing a pool with everyone in the U.S. We all made an agreement that whoever wins gets to keep the money for themselves. Seems fair to me.

200 people. We each put up $0.01.

3 of us threw in $10 a piece. I then made a list of all the numbers that didn't get picked, and am going to buy another $20 worth of tickets tonight for myself using those unpicked numbers. They're gonna be pissed if I hit.

Only one I ever did was bullshite. We all put up 20 our so for around 250 tickets or something.
Didn't win the jackpot, but something like $50 off matching combinations. The fricker holding the tickets basically ignored this and had to be called out. Then said he had just thrown them away.
Never again.

Do y'all sign contracts for this shite?
Posted on 1/13/16 at 12:59 pm to John88
47 out of 63 of us put in $6 each and bought 141 tickets.

We set up a spreadsheet basically spelling out how the money would get distributed if we won based on how much was contributed. If you put $ in, your name gets on the spreadsheet. Everyone obviously agreed to the terms before putting in money.
Probably won't win, but you never know. FWIW my office bought ~70 tix.

If we hit it, don't bother sending your kids to my school for a week or two cause they're going to have to hire an entire new faculty and coaching staff.

Does the spreadsheet list the ticket numbers that were purchased? I would just have a hard time trusting the person holding the tickets. Seems ripe for a "oh, the winning ticket was one that I purchased separately" type thing.

Why would you just immediately quit your job? Seems like a dumb move.
