If possible, always buy your own lottery tickets. Do not ask neighbors or friends to pick them up for you. Similarly, don't pick up tickets for others. Do not loan or borrow money for tickets, and do not go halfsies, either. Why? Isn't this a trifling matter -- the exact same as picking up a loaf of bread for somebody at the store? Not quite. If the ticket does not win or maybe if the prize is small, then there is usually no problem. But in the event the ticket turns out to be a jackpot winner, you could have a sticky situation on your hands.
