Wonderful individual we have here before us. One Michael Carroll, of Norfolk, UK, won 9.7 million Pounds in a European lottery. The former dustman blew the lot, since the 2002 windfall.

It’s a stunning path of destruction which ended with Michael currently putting his mansion on the market to scrape up some change – for half the sum he paid for it.

“You’ve got stye..
..that’s what all the girls say..”

The very eloquent, always accurate The Sun had this to say:

SKINT lotto lout Michael Carroll has made an internet video tour of his ruined mansion – as he prepares to put it up for sale. The 26-year-old former jailbird hopes to shift the ailing property for £250,000, a loss of £260,000 on his original outlay.

Former dustman Carroll bought it in 2002 for £340,000 after scooping a £9.7million Lottery jackpot. He then spent £175,000 adding a swimming pool and Jacuzzi, plus a new bathroom and kitchens.

However the thug went on to squander his mega payout and is now putting the six-bedroom Grange at Swaffham, Norfolk, on the market.

But his YouTube “sales pitch” shows potential buyers could be in for a shock.It reveals that carpets, windows and walls have been removed – while the “decor” includes BLOOD-STAINED walls and DOG-FOULED floors.

Water in the pool is avocado-coloured, having not been drained in two years – while floors and walls are coated in graffiti.

At the rear of the property is a demolition derby track – complete with clapped-out cars and piles of RUBBLE.

But at least “mod cons” are in plentiful supply – namely Carroll, who served time for affray, and several of his violent, drug-dealing cronies who were also sent to jail.

You see, Michael is a prime example on how not to do it.

I do hope the rest of you out there will be doing it differently, should your EuroMillions or SuperEna Lottery jackpot numbers come through.

It’s tricky. You think you can handle it?

Are you sure?

Would you even tell anyone?

I bet you would.

By the way, you know that local guy who thought he had won the lottery, and the media went and celebrated his victory? Without checking his ticket (you had a bitch about that here – entitled The Great Lottery Jackpot Winner Disaster)? Ja, well, enjoy this – my guy in the corner cafe near the Cape Royale hotel tunes me that the guy (the deaf mute follow who “thought” he had won the lottery) knew the dates on his ticket were wrong. But he bought the previous days winning numbers, to try and use that ticket to secure a loan at the bank. I swear to God. Shame. Can you fucking believe it? So, while he IS at fault, the media are still complete amateurs for publishing the story without checking the not-so-finer details. And THEN, for the Sunday Times to follow through and re-publish the story, quoting from the original, incorrect source. Seriously, is that what they taught you at play-play journalist school?
