She could go back to work. Nothing is stopping her.
so, if she won it at 18 her life would be different ?
Give it all to charity.
The lottery is the Euromillions. No taxes on it in Britain.
Invest it in index funds and take out 4% per year to live on. $50,000 a year is plenty to live on and you still have the principle.
The average family income in Britain is $33,000.
If she wants more money per year, work at something.
The world would be her oyster because she would be financially independent.
The problem is she has been brainwashed to think that expensive toys and expensive vacations will make her happy, when they have little positive effect and some negative effects.
No one wants to take responsibility for themselves anymore...
Donate all the money and shut up.

She really looks stressed in the photos!
Me thinks she spent the money too quickly and is looking for another windfall ...
Money won’t help much if your life sucks to begin with.
Real steps, if you hit the lottery.
1. Shut up about it: tell NOBODY outside your home.
2. Get a lawyer and an accountant. Get a bulletproof trust and plan to minimize the tax impact.
3. Get all-new phones (and phone numbers), make sure they’re unlisted, and likewise, create new email addresses.
4. Start making preparations to move.
THEN. . .
5. Collect your winnings through your lawyer. If they require a photo to collect, change your appearance for the photo. Wigs, fake facial hair, sunglasses, pads in cheeks, totally out-of-character clothing, etc.
6. Disappear.
How the heck does someone mess this up?
Too much money? Just set up an annuity.
Heck, playing it smart means that you don't need to save an enormous chunk of your salary for retirement, you'll have a lot more disposable income to play with. Will be a *fun* life.
But, it's not a license to sit on your butt. Just means that you've got it a little easier than most.
Sadly, this girl sounds like she'll turn out like so many others, win a ton of money, and have nothing left after a few years but some really nice tattoos.
Key word in the entire article:
“Instead of turning to God...”

She shouldn’t worry. She’ll be broke by the time she’s 25 and then she can go back to work.
My guess is that she ran out of money and wants a second trip to the well.
What fella wouldn't want a nice charming gorl like this?
Pick me! Pick me!
um..
it was only 1.25 million.
she has to pay socialist UK TAXES on that... so maybe $500,000 - $800,000 left...
but...
quote “she owns a flashy purple Range Rover, two residential properties and has traveled the globe with the lottery cash, she said, Park has also used her lottery winnings to pay for plastic surgery, designer shoes and extravagant nights clubbing, she said.”
um... dude she wont have to worry about being “rich” much longer...
She isn’t stressed because she won that money.. she is stressed because she has already SPENT it all! and is in debt up to her eyeballs!
1.25 million ... rich .. ROFL!
this skank is about to be bankrupt. She is living like a billionaire.
