Lotto Lag Lee Ryan, who won
£6.5million in a 1995 Lotto jackpot, is now broke and lives in a tiny
flat in south London where he takes in homeless lodgers .
Mr Ryan hit the headlines when he
landed the small fortune only weeks after the National Lottery was established,
then later that year was sentenced to 18 months in prison for handling stolen
cars.
According to Mailonline, Before and after the prison stint, he proceeded to spend the money on Ferraris, a Bentley and a BMW, a £1million Leicestershire mansion, a helicopter and a plane.

A
series of misfortunes also saw his housekeeper jailed for stealing £40,000,
while his Porsche and caravan were set on fire in suspicious circumstances. He
later divorced his wife Karen Taylor, with whom he had won
the fortune, and moved in with a 24-year-old student from Kyrgzstan.
