pool without question. Lisa plans to keep playing the lottery, using pools with

different groups of friends and insists she will hit another big jackpot in her life. Her

question for you.... should she form an S Corporation and make members of the pool

shareholders? What are the tax and logistical considerations that would need to be

discussed if she were to use an S-Corporation as a passthrough for future lottery

activities?
