Greed

This group of 19 co-workers in Ohio pooled together their money every year to buy a Lotto ticket with the understanding that they would split the winnings if they ever won. They've been doing this for 5 years. Well, they finally won. $207 Million. The problem is, 4 of the 19 weren't there this year when the money was collected, now they're being cut out. The Unfortunate Four are now suing for their cut.

This is a crying shame. Imagine trying to tell your friend and co-worker of 5 plus years "Sorry, charlie. You weren't here. You go back to work while we go live it up on the beach somewhere." That's messed up. They need to cut these people in. Its just the right thing to do. I don't know if the 4 have a legal case, but this is bad ju-ju for the 15 if they don't let these guys in.
