Would you tell your partner/spouse if you won a million dollar lottery?

I would tell my spouse too if I have one (and won a million dollars in the lottery). Since we share a lifestyle it wouldn't be good for our relationship if I held something so big. Maybe if it was a 500 dollar lottery I might hid it so I could buy something I like. I would probably buy a cake for my spouse too though so we both share the luck.

OFCOURSE you should! What is marriage without trust???

Like you I would only tell my husband. And if the amount is really huge to even last us a lifetime still we will keep mum about it and pretend to live an average life. I will still continue to work. It is really dangerous to have plenty of money since there are lots of bad people out there who are waiting for a victim. Am I that paranoid? :)

I am not married, and the guy I go with, we don't see each other a lot due to us living on opposite sides of town and no transportation between us. So, he probably wouldn't know if I did win anything or not. I DO have an ex husband that I owe child support to, and before his butt get deep in my business I would have to be in a lawyer's office setting up an agreement for his butt because there is still monies owed between us. fair is fair, but I had to pay him child support but when them kids came to me, he gave me NOTHING but he cried poor mouth every time they had to do something. So, I would have to shut em down before he try to play me and try he will do. I don't mind sharing, I don't mind giving, I do mind when people play me and that irks me more than a little bit.

Why not? I might not go public but my partner should always be informed at least for the sake of safety.

I would absolutely tell him. What's mine is his, and what's his is mine. We share our money.

eeheh i am not married so in my case i won't say to anybody....but i think if you are married is an important news to communicate to your family...may be somebody will run away but it sounds strange this last case for me...

Well, of course I would tell my boyfriend. Of course, I'd also make sure that I put the money into a separate account so that I could pay off some stuff and buy a nice house before he spent anything. I love my boyfriend, but he does not share some of my financial priorities.

I could not stop myself from running to tell him! I am a widow now, but we had a no secrets marriage that lasted almost 40 years. I`d tell him immediatly and trust that he would do what was best. Probably, the best way in those cases is to be helped by our Bank.

I would tell only my husband and the family. I'd talk to them that it should be a secret, otherwise I won't give them their share, hahaha!

Of course i would tell my husband if i won a million dollar lottery. I could not find the reason why i should just keep it for myself. We have undergone some difficulties together and i think we should share happiness together too.

I would have to tell my husband, we have shared account so even if I didn't he would find out eventually, but I don't think I would be able to keep something that exciting all to myself and my husband is the best person to share secrets with!

I would find it very hard to keep a secret like that from my husband. I would absolutely tell him. We have separate accounts so we've already established that we make our own money. But when it comes down to it, we pay for each others bills, meals, and clothes all the time so we don't have a problem with that. I'm sure my husband would advise me on what and who I should spend it on but ultimately it'd be my choice. We were married before I won the lottery so I think I'd at least owe it to him to tell him I won.
