mc_squared Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Teenage lottery millionaire who won £1.9m broke at 22 By Daily Mail Reporter Last updated at 3:38 AM on 24th August 2009 Comments (0) Add to My Stories Former teenage lottery millionaire Callie Rogers is said to be facing bankruptcy after blowing all of her £1.9million jackpot. However, Miss Rogers, 22, who is living with her mother and has taken three cleaning jobs to make ends meet, claims she is glad to be poor. Her life lurched from one crisis to the next after she won her fortune at 16 and she attempted suicide twice. Penniless: Miss Rogers pictured last week But she has now told a friend: '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. 'I've just wanted to make people happy by spending money on them. 'But it hasn't made me happy. It just made me anxious that people are only after me for my money.' Miss Rogers drives a second-hand VW Golf and is selling her £180,000 house in Whitehaven, Cumbria. She is believed to need the cash to pay a £3,000 solicitor's bill and could face bankruptcy proceedings if she cannot raise enough cash. Jackpot: Callie Rogers with her winnings in 2003 Her parents Jeff Rogers and Susan Jenkinson, who live separately in High Harrington, Cumbria, yesterday refused to comment on the claims. The mother of two children, aged four and one, became the second youngest person to win the lottery jackpot in July 2003. But her life has turned full circle since she hit the headlines six years ago. 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. Other expenses include £188,000 in gifts to boyfriends and legal fees of around £70,000. She also set up a sixfigure trust fund for her children. Miss Rogers began a stormy relationship with criminal Nicky Lawson and they had a son and a daughter. But she tried to kill herself with an overdose of tablets over allegations that he tried to steal her cash and had slept with her younger sister. Then in December last year her boyfriend Ryan Thompson was arrested for dealing cocaine at her home and having a stun gun. He was later jailed for two years. Miss Rogers, a former Co-op shelf stacker, was also arrested but was released without charge. Shortly before the arrest she is said to have slashed her wrists. Four years ago she told how her windfall had led to her first suicide attempt. She said: 'Until you win such a large amount of money at such a young age, you don't realise the pressures that come with it. 'I did it because winning the lottery has ruined my life. 'I wish I had never won. I haven't been able to cope with it - and I was convinced I'd be better off dead.'

Saffire Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Further proof that the flow of capital is not arbitrary, and that money accumulates toward those who are the best allocators of it. It's why government and poor people are perpetually in debt; they are both brutish creatures of the same nature, inelegant in their thinking.

Saffire Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 O_O did you just sweepingly say all poor people are inherently stupid? They are poor because they are stupid. Because of the choices they make: where they live, how much they save, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make a plan before you spend this kind of money morons! They are poor because they are stupid. Because of the choices they make: where they live, how much they save, etc. By saying that, I'm guessing you have a lot of money to throw around.

Valid point, but he just recently got out of college and is awaiting trial, so he can't really apply for a job at the moment. He's one of the top 2 or 3 smartest people I know, and I expect him to be worth a lot one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
