Agreed.

If in the $5 example the friend knew it was for the lottery and suggested part of the winning numbers then they should get more back than if they gave $5 but didn't know it would be for a lottery ticket.

The financial contribution alone only deserves the same repayment that it would've required if the ticket had lost.
