Callie Rogers spent her fortune on breast implants.

Newly-found assets

One winner decided to spend her £1.87 million winnings on a treasure chest to help her burst into the glamour industry.

Callie Rogers spent £4,000 on silicone breast implants and aims to be the next Jordan.

The winning lady seems happier than ever, telling tabloids: "I'm only 18 and I've got it all...big boobs and lots of money."

Her ambition is to pose for Page Three, stating: "I'm ready to unleash the wild woman in me." Grrr

Losing out to the lottery

Money didn't buy this chap happiness.

When 19 year old dustbin man Michael Carroll won almost £10million, he celebrated with a bowl of spaghetti bolognaise and a bottle of vodka.

He splashed out on elaborate entertainment for his friends such as fireworks displays and quad bike racing in his new luxury Norfolk mansion.

His luck soon ran out when his wife walked out on him, taking their daughter as well, after he became embroiled in drugs offences.

Lucky charms

Some people are just plain lucky. Here's some interesting ways in which people have landed a fortune...

Creature comforts...
A pet chicken was soon renamed from 'Kiev' to 'Lucky' when the chick clawed at his owner's calculator, appearing to pick five winning numbers. A very claws-worthy pet...

Pick-pocketed for a fortune find...
It could have been a washout for one lucky lad with a thoughtful girlfriend.

Before sticking a pair of jeans into the wash, one winner's girlfriend checked the pockets, only to find a winning ticket to a £1.5 million fortune. Now that's a clean break...

Not such a short change...
Not wearing the right outfit to gain entry into a nightclub seemed to be a stroke of luck for three unlikely lads.

After being told they needed shirts, they went to a 24 hour supermarket for the correct attire.

With the change from their new outfits they bought scratch cards and unveiled the £20,000 prize. Now that's a smart purchase...
