>work at an arcade
>two brothers are playing a game where you pull a lever and a wheel spins until it lands on the ticket amount
>the older brother landed on the jackpot and got 200 tickets

>The elder says, "No. I've earned these tickets."
Is he right?

The mom could have replied I earn the money that you use for the coins so it's technically hers

Your employer could say that the money you make is technically theirs and collect any profit from your assets.

The mother could have been more reasonable and told him to give him some tickets while keeping the rest to himself
Like give him 50, use 50 and he takes the 100 left home to use another day
Chances are she just didn't want to deal with the younger sibling throwing a tantrum and didn't want to buy more tickets tho

What is sharing?
ya he did earn them. there is no point in splitting the tickets either. You get to the counter and realize all the good prizes are out of reach because you split your jackpot. What ever prize he gets he would have to share anyway.

If you do the exact same thing as someone else, though, can you really say you earned more, just because the number is different?

The only person in this situation who 'earned' anything was the arcade owner who duped 2 little kids into ponying up $5 each for 10 cents worth of tickets in return that could be redeemed for another 25 cents worth of prizes.
Both the kids were retarded and just threw away their money. If the kid want to keep his stupid decision, let him.
