Disgraced Lottery Winner Now Works In Cookie Factory (Video)
July 15, 2013
Years ago, Michael Carroll hit the lottery in Britain. Yes! Now, he’s working in a cookie factory in Scotland?? Nooooo!
Now, there is NOTHING wrong with working in a cookie factory (esp. if you own it… bought from, say, the money you won in the lottery). But…
In 2002, the then-19-year-old garbage man won £9.7 million (about $14.4 million). However, over the next few years, Carroll lived it up eff’d it up – snorting massive amounts of ‘nose candy’ (e.g. using cocaine), spending outrageous amounts on a mansion, jewelry and hookers, and landing himself in jail sentence in 2006. But now in the aftermath, this dude may finally be getting it together – acting like he has some sense after wasting part of his lifetime and getting down to his last cents.
“In the crazy days, I’d wake up, do a line of cocaine, then open a can of lager. These days, it’s bran flakes for Âbreakfast at 7 a.m. then maybe a cycle before work.”
– Michael Carroll
Check out a teaser for a documentary being made after the jump.
