Lottery winner, 42, still lives with parents after scooping £8million prize
A millionaire lottery winner who bought himself a Ferrari and Rolex watch has admitted he still lives with his mum.
Kursat Yildirim, 42, made headlines when he scooped up a €9.9million (£8.72million) prize last September in Dortmund, Germany.
Mr Yildirim, who is also known as Chico, dumped his girlfriend and quit his job as a crane operator before going on a massive spending trip and splashing out €1.5m (£1.3m) within a month.
Now he's admitted he still lives with his parents saying it was too expensive to buy a house in Germany.
He splits his time between Turkey and Germany.

He said: "I am happy living with my parents.

He added that he did not like living alone and the offer from his parents was just too good to pass up.
He said: "They told me, both of your brothers are gone, we got a big living room, with three bedrooms and we would be really happy if you lived with us.
"To be honest I love it as well, I come home in the evening and my mum is there."

He told how he received a call from a friend in Turkey who told him about his win after the pal checked the lottery numbers for him.
The ex-convict and now former drug addict then spent his winnings on a V8 Ferrari 448 Pista, a Porsche Turbo S Cabriolet, a penthouse in Istanbul, and went shopping at luxury stores such as Rolex, Prada, Gucci and Versace.
He has also reportedly purchased a 20-hectare plantation containing 6,000 almond trees in his native Turkey, and was even seen eyeing a yacht to add to his top-of-the-range cars.
In his latest adventure, he reportedly initiated a donations campaign named 'Chico, I wish', where one of his fans asked him to fund his penis enlargement surgery.
