HOW NOT TO GET RICH QUICK

     William Johnstone, aged seven, went on an Internet shopping website, and, using his mother’s credit card, bought himself an aeroplane. No, not a toy aeroplane. A jet-fighter. Fortunately, the seller realized there was something wrong when he asked for the delivery address. Flat number 53 in downtown Detroit was not the answer he was expecting. In this case, not a penny was spent, but there are plenty of other cases of people blowing lots of money very quickly, very stupidly.

     Californian Bill Davies didn’t even get that far. When he saw that he had the winning numbers in his local lottery, he immediately ordered a Mercedes, booked a family holiday in Hawaii and had a champagne dinner for friends and family. When he went to pick up his winnings, he found that 9,022 others had also won first prize! His share of the jackpot was $40.

     Ridley Toowomba won nearly $1,000,000 on the lottery in March 2001. By May, he had $400 left. ‘I got a bit excited’, said the builder, 24. He went on a spending spree and bought six cars, including two for his friends. Of those six, by May he had already crashed two, and his friend crashed a third in June. Fortunately, Toowomba was able to return to his old job. ‘It was fun while it lasted’, he said, ‘but I’m happier working with my mates’.

     When 76-year-old Samantha Brown realized her husband was in debt, she decided to sell as many things as possible, including an old mattress. A few weeks later her husband nervously asked her where the mattress was. Hidden inside it were his life savings of £18,000. They managed to find the mattress but not the money, which, strangely, ‘had taken a walk’.
