Having had his tickets checked for him by a coworker, a man has offered to give his coworker half of his $50,000 (£41,000) lottery winnings. Michael Winfield, a Maryland resident who won the generous sum in a drawing in December, was eager to repay his colleague for the favor. The 58-year-old owner of the construction company made a stop on his way home from a construction site to buy $10 (£8) worth of lottery tickets.

You are correct, but it is also human nature to be greedy and collect all the proceeds for yourself under the premise that the one who assisted you was not lucky enough. Money changes the perception of many people

That is so heartwarming to hear. It just goes to show that kindness and gratitude can go a long way. This story also highlights the importance of having a community and helping others when you can.
