BB winner's cash almost gone
| Quote: | Celebrity Hijack winner John Loughton has revealed that most of his £50,000 prize money is now gone.
The 20-year-old, who is chairman of the Scottish Youth Parliament, today told how he had bought fittings and furniture for his mother Donna McColl's
flat in West Pilton.
He was reported as saying: "I had her crying in a furniture shop the other week.
"She'd never had a sofa of her own before. They were always from charity shops or pass-ons from relatives.
"We ended up arguing over it – she didn't want to take it off me."
He also spoke about how he survived growing up in one of Edinburgh's toughest areas and went on to study politics at Stirling University.
"People ask how I turned out so differently," he said.
"All I know is that there was a flick in my engine towards the end of my time at school and not everybody gets that same flick."
And Loughton revealed how the experiences of George Galloway had almost put him off taking part in the TV show. |

Aha, £50,000 isn't all that much money in the long run - its a good starting fund depending on how its used... but John spent alot on his mum which
is great of him - just doesn't really leave him much to play with.
I'll remember the image of going to get some cash out the night before the wrap party, we all went out for a nice meal... John was so shocked when he
seen something like £50,479 :p His face was great to watch : )

No, it's not that much money, but if you can save it it really adds up in the long run. I think it was stupid of him to spend it so quickly. It's
only been six months!
And do you mean the meal cost 50,479?

I'm assuming Liam's talking about his bank account which was £50,000 richer.
