Lottery Winner at 16, Broke at 22

British person Callie Rodgers was the second-youngest individual in that country to win the lottery, at age 16.  1.9 million pounds was her payout (which is, I don’t know, maybe $4 mil?) and she successfully spent it all in only six years.

“My life is a shambles and hopefully now it has all gone I can find some happiness. It’s brought me nothing but unhappiness. It’s ruined my life.”

Indeed, she’s attempted suicide twice.  How did she blast her cash?  In the same way you or I would, of course: houses, cars, plastic surgery, and “partying” (drugs).  

She bought and furnished four homes for herself, her parents and her grandmother for £550,000, and spent £200,000 on luxury holidays.

Around £265,000 was blown on expensive cars, gifts and loans to family members.

She spent more than £450,000 on designer clothing, partying and having her breasts enhanced.

Damn, that is some luxury holidays for that money.  And some luxury parties.  And some luxury breasts.  Now she drives a used VW Golf.  One of her boyfriends stole from her and cheated on her with her sister, while the other peddled blow from her house.  As they say, money can buy you a million dollars’ worth of clothes and breasts, but it can’t buy you the ability to make decisions using an extremely basic amount of sense.  Or as they also say, money can buy you happiness, but only for six years, tops.
