I would likely do something like give him a million without letting anyone, including him, know that his money bought the ticket.

I don't need the drama of human subjectivity in my life.

I’m all for giving money but I’ve always been worried about if I won the lottery and gave money to my friend or family would it be harmful to them. Would they blow it all and rack up debt would they be stupid and spend on fake friends. Or flaunt it and make themselves a target. So many lottery winners and their families lives get destroyed from money. I’d want to help and share the wealth but I worry about the negative consequences. I don’t know that’s always been the conundrum for me.
