A Thai man who bought a lottery ticket from a mentally unstable man and promised to share the winnings if he won, kept his word after winning. The incident, shared on TikTok, has garnered widespread admiration for his honesty.

TikTok user @monrudeeyensabai posted a clip yesterday of her husband who decided to buy a lottery ticket from a mentally unstable man for 100 baht, instead of the original 80 baht. He told the man that if he won, he would give him 1,000 baht. To everyone’s surprise, the ticket won a two-digit prize. After deducting expenses, the winnings amounted to 1,300 baht. True to his word, the TikTok user’s husband gave 1,000 baht to the mentally ill man and kept 300 baht for himself.
