so she's complaining about getting the money too young. and now is suing the lottery for... presumably more money...?

Atlantic Dawn · 13-02-2017 03:30AM

She must have blown the bloody lot like a fool and wants easy money now.

NIMAN · 13-02-2017 03:35AM

No harm, but she sounds like she would have been miserable with or without the money.

This is one of those things in the news that I cannot understand or grasp. Too silly. What solicitor is going to take on that job? Only a fool would.

Spa.

Give it all away to charity if it's that hard a life for you.

They say if you took all the wealth in GB and distributed it equally amongst all citizens, within one generation the money would be back where it started.

endacl · 13-02-2017 04:08AM

Had to check the date of the article. No, not April 1....

pickarooney · 13-02-2017 07:20AM

Pure piss take.

Arghus · 13-02-2017 07:23AM

Wish they'd ruin my life.

Phoebas · 13-02-2017 07:31AM

If she wins the case and gets a massive payout, will she appeal?

Peregrinus · 13-02-2017 07:31AM

She's suing the lottery claiming . . . what, exactly? Monetary damages? Money has made her miserable, so she wants to be compensated with more money?

freshpopcorn · 13-02-2017 07:42AM

I think the lottery should take her two properties off her and what ever other items she bought due to her wealth and items she may have given to people and pay for her to have counselling!

I hope she gets burnt in legal fees. Should help her situation.

sbsquarepants · 13-02-2017 10:21AM

I can't stand these whinging tosspots - if too much money is ruining your life - give it away, problem solved

They say money can't buy you happiness, which is true, but it can certainly help in passing the time until you find happiness elsewhere.
There is no problem in this world which is somehow alleviated by adding a bit more poverty to the mix.

Ah here, the Queen doesn't take that much from the tax payers... :pac:

Despite the fact that Camelot, which runs EuroMillions in the UK, appointed an adviser to help Ms Park deal with her newly accumulated wealth, she said it was family advice that helped her keep her spending in check.

“I’ve read about other lottery winners who’ve just blown it all and I can totally see how it can be done,” she said. “I was stuck in front of a financial adviser who was using words like investment bonds. I had no clue what they meant.”

Bloody hell.

It could cost her a bit. Camelot say it's the government who sets the age so it's the goverment she'd have to sue. Won't be long spending whatever's left if that's the case.

At least that guy who blew ~17m in the UK is back doing a bin lorry and didn't seem to have too many regrets

Yeah, the only thing he gained from his win in the end was weight

Fleawuss · 13-02-2017 10:38AM

It has to be somebody else's fault. It's always someone else who has the responsibility for people like her.

fizzypish · 13-02-2017 10:39AM

What the absolute ****. She didn't blow the money. She did the smart thing. Owns 2 properties. Is working a job. Clever girl. Whats the problem? "My mates have no money and I feel left out so I think I'll sue for the emotional turmoil". **** off.

Potential-Monke · 13-02-2017 10:42AM

I just can't...

MilesMorales1 · 13-02-2017 10:56AM

Mmmm, thats pretty terrible alright. She should give me that money so I can too experience being rich too young, sort me out that would.

razorblunt · 13-02-2017 11:18AM

Bloody hell, it was a million she won, not a hundred million.

Depending on what kind of gaffs she bought in Edinburgh too she's laughing.

MilesMorales1 · 13-02-2017 11:27AM

Does one really get some arbitary ascension of maturity at age 18 as opposed to age 17? Pretty sure I was just as much of a gob****e at 18 as I was at 17.

_Brian · 13-02-2017 11:31AM

Just goes to show you need to be happy and content in your head or money will bring misery rather than happiness.
Silly cow.

Yeh, charles would become a multi billionaire by selling organic tomatoes that "one has talked to".

Mrs Windsor would make it all back by selling embroidery on Brighton beach.

Yeh. She hasn't lost the money. This is clearly just a play for more money, however stupid.

I'm sure everyone thinks this but I could absolutely cope with winning a massive sum of money. Seriously how hard can it be to just listen to the financial advisers and take your XXXX per month budget to spend on whatever you want and leave the rest to be managed by some professional?

Fair enough if you have a drug problem or people close to you do, I can see how that can make the situation implode but I don't have that to worry about..

I should start doing the euro millions

Anybody who has saved money in their life will probably not lose the money.
