Man wins lottery and ordered to share HALF with his ex wife (wtf)

How�s this for alimony? A Michigan man who won more than $30 million playing the lottery while separated from his wife has been ordered to give her nearly half the money as part of their divorce settlement.

Rich Zelasko of Pontiac had been split from his wife Mary Beth for about two years when he won the big Mega Millions prize in 2013.

But an arbitrator ruled the winnings were marital property and should be shared, the Detroit Free Press reported.

The husband�s lawyer had argued against dividing the money.

"Rich was lucky, but it was his luck, not Mary's, that produced the lottery proceeds,� the lawyer said, according to a court filing cited by the Free Press.

After taxes and deductions, the lottery player was left with just short of $39 million, court records said, according to Tribune Media. The arbitrator decided that Zelasko�s wife should get $15 million, the report said.

An appeals court upheld the arbitrator�s decision, according to reports.

The former couple�s divorce was finalized in 2018. Court documents showed they were married in 2004 and have three children.

Just one more reason to not get married.

I'd have kept that sh^t low profile & sped up the divorce process. Then go about the ticket claiming process before the time to claim it was up. And then gtfo there & move abroad or somewhere I could likely protect my money better. F#ck giving some hoe I'm about to divorce $15M.

I'm sure he's crying himself to sleep with the remaining $24 million.

He should of done some sort of deal where? He gives 2 Million to each of his kids, which they can spend after they are 18 years old 'And then just give 1.5-2 million to his X -wife'.

This dumbass should've finalized the divorce before cashing the ticket. Buy her out with a random lump sum of a few hundred k & then cash it in & never tell the hoe anything.
