I asked my cousin who was making a beer run to grab me a $10 scratch off from the gas station. I gave him the money and he bought the ticket for me. I ended up winning $125k. He didn’t ask for any of it and congratulated me on my winnings. I gave him half and he cried. He’s now The Godfather of my 3 year old daughter and I love him like a brother

The real winners: the lawyers, they didn’t even have to buy a ticket to get a piece of that check.👎

That extra 200k won't even cover half of her medical bills with a heart that dark

[cherylmassey]

I can’t stand her face. She put his name on the ticket for luck, and got lucky then decided he shouldn’t get money. Nasty.

It's sad to see Tyrone's frustration. When they were handed those checks, he was ecstatic, all smiles. Then to discover how spiteful your aunt can be... just sad.

[MrBlabu-]

When greed destroyes family. This woman is disgusting.

'He's like a son to me'... and she'll never see him again.

*Old woman: He's like a son to me...*
*"wins 1.2 million dollars"*
*Old woman: He was...*
Lmao

[ExiledByForce]

I hope the kid invests his money and makes millions that woman is hateful. She's like a Sith Lord you can just feel the hate oozing off of her

[nycliontwin]

She ended up with less, Junior ended up with much less. She's happy he's not getting equal money and the lawyers hit the lotto jackpot. This world is perfectly logical.

[samrester]

Only cost that kid $260k to find out what his aunt was really like.
Also, he now doesn't have to worry about taking care of her in her dotage.
He's young, has $350k AND rid of a potential future drain on his life.
He made out okay.

[garcia]

She won the lotto but still wearing the same outfit.

[Mr.Marcuzz]

When she runs out of her part of the money, she'll be upset again!

1:03 “Because he is like a son to me”
“HE WAS”

This women needs help as you can see money can reveal peoples real personality

[nitinbhakta]

This is wrong. The nephew's name was on the ticket just as much as the aunt's. He should have gotten half the money: $611K.

[LaurenSPARTAN]

This is sickening. She’s such a terrible person.

[leilashalhoub]

How cruel.

Nephew standing there so happy while the aunt spews with greed and evil ☹️

[DropoutDegree]

Congratulations, you’ve gained 800k and lost the only thing that matters in life, family and friends. Can’t wait for her to realize you can’t buy happiness.

“He’s like a son to me” takes him to court
