I’m just curious what her logic is.
I mean, besides showering a guy with a car, a Rolex, and lots of clothing in order to get him to love her, and buying 2 houses, a Chihuahua, cars etc, she’s suing for MONEY because MONEY ruined her life (according to her).

@carl669
I’m not sure if even The Onion would be able to post something like this.
Wait…
They would.
Nvm.
If the court sentenced her to lifelong adolescence complete with rules, permissions, and authority figures, it might be justice for her in this case.
But totally unfair to - in fact total hell on - everyone who had to deal w her.
Easy solution: Give me the money, you wont have those problems any more
@lichme
According to her, when she offered to pay travel insurance for a sick boy so that he could go to Florida, people claimed it was because she wanted publicity.
I wonder what people would say if she tried giving money to charity or something.
@PlacidPenguin I won’t tell if she doesn’t tell
Weird Al.

There’s a woman in North Carolina who hit it big on the lottery. Her boyfriend keeps getting arrested for drug dealing and she keeps posting his crazy high bonds. I think she was arrested herself last year. It seems like she’s going to lose it all to the courts.
so - a 17 year old is allowed to play the lottery in UK ?
@ekw In the article, she states “I think 18 should be the minimum age for winning the lottery, at the least. The current age of 16 is far too young."
@cengland0 thanks. I can’t say she’s wrong.
This should have started at 5:29, not sure why it didn’t.
@PlacidPenguin But did she actually sue? In the article it only indicated that she was considering legal action.
Without the money she wouldn’t have had the car in which to get arrested for driving drunk to McDonald’s.
If I won a million dollars, I would not go to McDonald’s.
She shouldn’t be suing for money. She should be suing for better friends.
@PocketBrain
Well she tried buying “love” with a car, a Rolex, and lots of clothing.
Maybe she could tweak that method a bit for “friends”.
Things she should have bought with $1,000,000 worth out of those £1,000,000…
• A house.
• Furniture for the house (such as a chesterfield or an ottoman).
• A K car (such as a Plymouth Reliant).
• A tree fort.
• A little tiny fridge to put in the tree fort, (containing pre-wrapped sausages).
• A fur coat (made of fake fur).
• An exotic pet (such as a llama or emu).
• The remains of John Merrick.
• A limousine to drive to the store.
• More Kraft Dinner (and expensive ketchup - dijon ketchup - to go with it).
• A green dress (but not a real one).
• Some art (such as a Picasso or a Garfunkel).
• A monkey.
• “Your love”
…then she’d be rich.
@curtise
She bought TWO houses.
She tried “love” though, and it ended bad for her.
Not ‘Hey, my left ear and (left) kidney were stolen’ bad, but bad.
@curtise Be honest now… haven’t you always wanted a monkey?
@PocketBrain I did until this happened: Chimp attack victim who had nose, lips, eyelids and hands ripped off says face transplant gave her a new life
Gee… She’s back.
So… She told her 3 room house in Dec because she felt “lonely”, and moved back in with her mother.

@PlacidPenguin
Not such a bad idea, all in all.
@f00l Well, even when she loses it all, she’ll still have her £4,500 boob job…
@daveinwarsh
And her incredible taste in lifestyle choices.
But moving in w Mom is a good sign. Perhaps she’ll turn out ok after all.
It’s the Chihuahua that really did her in.
