Question ? Ran into this years ago. A group of friends and I went in on the PB. IIRC we had like $500 in combined. There was quite a few involved. We hit like $5000 or $10,000 or something and it was some goodly amount of cash divvied out and the jackpot was hit. The 2 in charge of collecting the $ and buying the ticket let it ride on more tix without letting anyone else know and there was some pizzed individuals. I wanted my cut also to get in again on a higher jackpot later on. What are the ground rules.
I suggest if we win anything, make everyone aware and they can opt out and get their share or let it ride (if more tickets will be bought).
To be decided if we hit, I'd say if some want their $ they get their $, if others want to reinvest that's on them.
We'll deal with that when we get there, but id say i will divy the $ out and everyone needs to be honest to the taxman with their own affairs....
In New York they take the tax out out of winnings over $600. They don't just give you the money and hope you will pay the tax.
My guess would be that i would have to pay some taxes since the tickets will be bought here in PA.... by me. But we'll deal with that when we get there.
