AITA For Refusing To Share My Lottery Winnings With My Boyfriend After... - Best Reddit Stories

[@RainStrom_61]

Key word Boyfriend. No sharing in this relationship.

[@lovelyladyd24]

She’s dumb for even telling him anything. It doesn’t matter who it is for the most part if you bring up coming into a lot of money then people start expecting you to help them out.

[@TeamLexana]

Wow. I don't think he realizes how quickly 50k would get drained after paying for the wedding, honeymoon, and a place for them to move in together. There would be nothing left for whatever he was trying to scam her for.

[@alexiswinter6948]

Sounds like they both forgot the taxes on lottery winnings.

[@placitas52]

Why would he feel that entitled?

[@gxr7777]

If he won do you think she would not be entitled and demand some of it?

[@Miss_kitkat123]

@@gxr7777 erm no she probably would not like wth I know I certainly wouldn't and it's ridiculous to do so

[@TeamLexana]

​@@gxr7777Nope. Not as a girlfriend for less than two years. That's a gold digger as men love to label women.

[@Miss_kitkat123]

Before we even start ima say no. BOYFRIEND not HUSBAND this is your money babes if he's gonna be an ass about it I'd up and leave now that amount is definitely life changing enjoy it girl so happy for you❤

[@gaylerembert]

Boyfriends entitlement is outrageous Time for you to say goodbye Never ever tell anyone about your finances It’s nobody’s business but your own

[@cindylee7855]

Oh hell no! Boy BYE!

[@terryyates6125]

You are not the asshole for not sharing your winnings. Maybe buy him a nice dinner, or something practical, but you are not obliged to share, or anything.

[@AtyPical1313]

You can buy another boyfriend with the money.

[@joeyDeez00]

Not in todays economy

[@Miss_kitkat123]

Lmao😂😂😂

[@TeamLexana]

I get the sentiment but 50k really doesn't go far, especially after she pays taxes on it.

[@amberhaywood3455]

Yup

[@califdad4]

He messed up, she might have taken him on a trip or something, it's not his money, what a entitled jerk he turned out to be

[@raranjan4383]

Tell him you will marry him, but you want a Prenup that keeps your finances TOTALLY separate!

[@TLJ88]

It’s only 50,000!!😂

[@vickiechandler3112]

nah...too many loopholes can be contested even in one that seems ironclad and if she agrees to marry him then backs out , even a verbal agreement can be considered a breech of contract and he could sue for money ...better to laugh and tell him beat it.

[@xuey0uth]

Why marrying that greedy asshole😂

[@mesquitemagic]

Tell Jake to take the rest of his life to think, then move on.

[@wickedbird1538]

😮😮Keyword BOYFRIEND. You are not even living together. Not his money. Maybe you shouldn’t have said anything about this money.

[@francoisjmarais2065]

There is no “we in this discussion “. How did he built credit card debt? Now looking to get the share

[@palmspringsmarythomson6354]

I wouldn't have said a word

[@marie34K]

Depending on the country of course I think that money you got before marriage is not marital property . The guy didn't do his homework ...

[@dotticaccamo7504]

Would you give a little to family? Boyfriend...no Family...yes

[@TLJ88]

50,000! Car and student loans it’s all gone!

[@GigiMichelina]

He proposed on the phone. Come on now.

[@gxr7777]

50K is nice but its not generational wealth. She has loans so that the 1st order of the day.

[@judyjohnson9610]

@@gxr7777 It doesn't go far. But she can definitely get a handle on her student loans and upgrade her transportation. And that's a boost to her situation

[@TeamLexana]

​@@judyjohnson9610Yup. With those loans out of the way early, she could be set up for a good future.

[@MargaretNewman-eb3gb]

She should've been done with him when he threatened to take her to court.

[@raranjan4383]

What a controllapath. Get rid of him.

[@dawn-gk2tr]

$50 thousand is a great windfall but not enough to let someone else play with a portion of it. The boyfriend showed how he came to have such a large amount of credit card debt. He is a boyfriend , not an owner .

[@belindacampbell8094]

After taxing, which would have been a little over about 30 percent, it wouldn’t have been $50,000. Still a good chunk but not enough for all those plans.

[@pooheadlou]

They may not be American? We do not pay taxes on prizes in my country.

[@JenniferJohnson-l3r]

Never ever tell anyone about your winnings. EVER. Because once someone shows you who they really are. You'll never look at them the same way again

[@liladance3506]

Never tell someone you won the lottery

[@Glen456-pt3fy]

I think that this money was a double blessing for you because it showed a side of Jake that was not nice and loving. Ditch Jake forever and use you money for your benefit and no one elses❤❤

[@grannyell9487]

You don't owe him anything. If it had been him with the money do you think he would have shared.IT IS YOUR MONEY NOT HIS> he wants to blow it on things that are for him. Ditch him. It is not his money. You have no reason to give him any thing Ditch him..Let him take you to court lt will cost him a lot more than he would get.

[@dotticaccamo7504]

I would have given a little to my loved ones. Boyfriend...no. Family...yes.

[@judyjohnson9610]

I would love to listen in on that court case. If he decided to get a lawyer, he would have been set straight (and laughed out) before setting foot in the court

[@vickiechandler3112]

@@judyjohnson9610 lol..if any lawyer didnt laugh him off the initial inquiry about representing first...lol i dont even think a shady lawyer would touch that case

[@carolynhiscock9457]

Run,op,run

[@xnay-ey8dk]

Let him sue. He will lose. Counterclaim for emotional distress.

[@DhyanaV-r8p]

What if they break up? Will he pay her alimony?

[@barbwegley907]

Lose the boyfriend ❗️ Bank the money ❗️ YOU WON ❗️ NOT BOYFRIEND ❗️

[@ConnieHull-t3f]

You owe him nothing, not a penny. Put your money where he can not get his hands on it.

[@aking3624]

Just ask for a prenuptial agreement...see how fast he runs!! Plus, you don't want his cc bills!!!

[@user-uu9hx1ep8c]

A man who actually plans to share his life with a woman would recognize how he benefits from his partner's financial stability, but a man with one foot already out the door would only be interested in what specifically benefits him- benefits he can take with him when he leaves.

[@Cheshyre.]

It takes a few weeks for you to get that money, and you have to let the piggy irs oink up it's unfair share. I'm wondering if this is real.

[@dawn-gk2tr]

One always wonders , especially when the reader punctuated the sentences so poorly. Especially as the writer and " Jake" seem to think the fifty thousand is huuuuge .

[@jjjordan0216]

Marriage proposal off of 50k? 🤣🤣🤣

[@23shadowlee]

Let Jake take you to court he won't win. Find yourself another boyfriend

[@loliejane1164]

HE'S the selfish one. You're not married, it's your money. He's showing his true colours here. Leave now.

[@alexiswinter6948]

I would like to know what kind of "everything" they went through in 2 stinking years. 🙄

[@VergilTheLegendaryDarkSlayer]

The keyword is "boyfriend" not "husband" Even if it was millions, he has zero rights to it unless there's a written contract stating otherwise

[@simplyabbey139]

I hope she’ll learn the lesson of shut up

[@csh43166]

Byyyyyyeee-eee, Jake....

[@morganaflames2868]

Stand your ground, he has no say in your money.

[@califdad4]

Your not married, no children, this is all your's, if he can't understand that then good-bye, 50k isn't that much money and you need to pay student loans and new or newer car and put the rest in savings. He has no right morally or legally to your money

[@ninaross211]

HOUSE 🏠. TOGETHER ?? SAYS THE BROKE MAN ! 😆

[@robertalernet2199]

Buy your own ticket boyfriend.

[@leahlemieux6410]

You should not have told your BF. Since YOU won it, YOU will be paying the taxes on it, not your BF. Safe half of it for taxes. Do not pay anything for your BF. Cover your own a**.

[@leahlemieux6410]

Good luck with that court case Jake.🤣 idiot.

[@maggiewakefield875]

He is an AH! As Dave Ramsey says, “there is no WE unless there is a ring on your finger.”

[@Greeneyedcat99]

If the shoe was in the other foot there is no way Jake would share. Jake is the greedy one. He would take it all and it would be gone in no time at all. He would be off in Europe by himself and cheating up a storm. He can’t win that silly ass court case. Dump his ass.

[@jasontodd8071]

NTA!

[@JackieSkellington]

Nope! Your money! Not husband and you dodged a bullet, because he will never stop until it's gone - sorry pumpkin, you won and lost 😢

[@computernerdtechman]

Why is it that almost every story from "Mr Reddit Tales" is always never finished. There is never a ending to the story. Did she break up with Jake or is she just going to keep letting him complain to her about the money or does she finally give in and give him half the money? Mr Reddit Tales makes it so we will never know. This happens in almost every story from this channel. Thumbs down from me.

[@MrRedditTales]

Hi, thanks for watching and giving your feedback. I'm sorry you didn't like the story. Is it really important to you that the story has a clear resolution? Stories on Reddit often have no resolution.

[@computernerdtechman]

@@MrRedditTales It's like watching a super hero movie where the hero is tied up by the bad guy and the movie suddenly ends. Did the hero get out of the trap? Was the bad guy caught? Who knows? Every well written story has a beginning, middle and end - Creative writing 101. Audiences want resolution to the story just like porn watchers want the "Money shot".🤣 It gives them a sense of completion. A cathartic thing.

[@dianaott]

@@MrRedditTalesyes! It’s important to get resolution. A lot of stuff on there is frustrating to read, and your videos are frustrating to watch. Other creators manage retelling Reddit stories a lot better than this by taking the time and effort to find stories that actually end.

[@MrRedditTales]

@@dianaott Okay, thanks for the feedback, I'll take it into account)
