No, the rationalistion for not being grateful for someone giving their money, because it legally is her money, away is flawed.

Whoever won the 30k and still agreed to share it would deserve gratitude.

Your argument is completely invalid.

Some people would be grateful for that gesture.

If a person had agreed to do that I definitely would buy them a decent B'day present as a thank you.
The 30k is not hers. She didn't win it. They agreed the money would be divided equally BEFORE they dipped in the hat. She isn't being generous at all no more than Jay is for handing over 5k of the 15k in his bank account.
Generosity doesn't come into it.

All 5 of the housemates agreed to share the money out whatever happened and at this point Alex (or indeed any other housemate who may of got the money) lost all rights to call it their money, or things would have been done a lot differently.

Yeah, but she hasn't even had the chance to keep up her end of the bargain yet. We don't know 100% if she will share it out. Plus, the present money was deducted from Jay & Louise's funds, NOT her's.

So, in the effort to defend Aaron, even her agreement to share her money with the group is twisted and doubted, while not even making a gesture to say thanks is lauded.

I see. Business as usual then.

Well, repetition of the same point once it has been answered clearly is generally not required.

But, hey, keep going for it if it rocks your boat.

HUH?@! How about lousie and jay r so fake threads, or countless aaron is our lord threads?! They are so genrerous!!! If they came in to win the money and have a gameplan; why would they spend that much money. Theyre 100% genuine and generous.

Aaron came off as a right b, ruining alex and toms bday because " jay and louise are acting up to cameras" and deserves to have 1000X more blogs written about him

Why should she be given thanks for something she hasn't yet done?

Oh right, sorry, I was under the impression she had already agreed to share the money in her account with them so it was fair.

If someone said to you, 'I want to give you £1000', would you really just stand there looking at them with your hand out saying nothing until they put the cash in your hand?

Personally I would say thank you with a smile as soon as they made the offer, and thank you again when they gave me the money.

That's just me though.

Im just glad that Aaron only got £990 because out of all of them he is the one i would expect to be pathetic enough to do a u-turn and keep all the money he could.

What has that statement got to do with this thread Bob ?
Aaron won't need to do any 'u-turns' as he will have his £50,990 total prize anyway!
