Today, my boyfriend and I won $1,000 on a scratch-off, but when he tried to cash it in they told him he owed money to the state so we got nothing. If I had done it instead we would have gotten the money. FML

This is probably better in the long run. It would have had to be owed eventually, and a surprise of $1000 if he were really struggling would have been worse! Stinks, but take it! If it we're swapped I'd hope he'd be supportive too.

He took care of $1000 in debt with the scratch of a ticket. How much luckier can you get?

Hey, you’ll never believe it! I just took a $1000 winning scratch-off ticket from someone and told them they actually owed that amount, so I didn’t have to give them any money! What an idio—oh, hi, OP.

Sounds like child support won $1000 on a scratch off.

So your bf now owes you $500 since all the amount went to pay his own debt.

Let me rephrase this one. We owed someone a lot of money. Then we got money, and they made us pay them back, FML. Except no, YDI. Seriously.
