Tonight's Powerball is up over $1 billion again. Here's a scenario you'll never deal with, but it's fun to think about . . .
A friend asks if they can borrow $10. You hand them a ten . . . they use it to buy Powerball tickets . . . and they hit the JACKPOT. How much do they owe you?
Someone asked, and people voted. Here are the four options . . .
1. Just the original $10 you loaned them.
2. Half of the winnings.
3. All the winnings
4. Nothing.
The top vote-getter was just the original $10. It got 72% of the vote. If they want to give you more, great . . . and maybe they should. But they're not obligated to.
