Did she pay 40 baht of the ticket cost before the draw was made? 

This clearly falls under the two categories "sin somros" and "sin suan tua" which a the ground pillars for ownership between married people. To make a comment like yours, mean that you have no clue. He was married when he bought the ticket, which means that it´s both his and his wifes property. With a win, this means they are obligated by law to slit the winnings 50/50. That´s the law in Thailand, and has nothing to do with who bought the ticket.

Lucky man, she loves him for 6 million reasons...????????????

Probably not, but the law is the law. Wonder if you would have been stating the same if she won and tried to steal the winnings? I think not. Then you probably posted that she was a bad person and like all women she take all money from their men.

On the subject of marriage and lottery winnings, consider the following.................

 

The man says to his wife, "Darling if I won the lottery what would you do?".
The wife says, "I would take half and leave you".

The man answers, "Well I won 500 baht on the lottery yesterday, so here's your 250 baht. Stay in touch from time to time".

Well, what if a foreigner win the Thai lottery?double taxation from Thai government and whatever the government the person belong to?

There's a 0.5% tax that all winners of the Government Lottery in Thailand have to pay, Thais or foreigners.     Anything due in your own country is your own problem.
