I’m living in squalor after being blocked from my $12MILLION inheritance because I won’t get a job
A HEIRESS is living in squalor after being blocked from her $12million inheritance because she "won't get a job".
Clare Brown, 27 - who grew up in Sydney's affluent eastern suburbs - has been told she needs to get a permanent job and "contribute to society" to unlock her millions.
The young Aussie - who is an only child - has so far refused to fulfil her dad's wishes, claiming she can't because of her health condition.
Instead, the millionaire heiress is stuck living on welfare and is "constantly broke," according to the .
"I understand why these people want me to be a functioning member of society, however, you have to look at my diagnosis and realize that is not going to happen," Clare told Aussie programme .
"I am not going to learn how to drive because I have ADHD. I have the attention span of a gnat."
Clare now lives with her wife Lauren and their 15-month-old daughter in a deprived part of Sydney.
It's a far cry for the daughter of a successful stock-trading father, who attended one of the best schools in Australia and lived in a $5m waterfront apartment in exclusive Darling Point.
She was reportedly handed a $500 weekly allowance by her dad.
But Clare says her father, Christopher Hyland Brown, constantly cut off her allowance, which forced her to get on the doll.
When Christopher died this year, he left the family fortune with two conditions: that Clare get a job and "contribute" to society - two things Clare says is impossible.
"I have called myself a broke millionaire because I am broke constantly and can’t do anything about it," the riches-to-rags Sydneysider said.
"Give me what is rightfully mine. I am suffering. Can you please stop with the whole 'me getting a job'? It’s not happening."
Clare claims her ADHD prevents her from getting a job and keeping it and needs a to-do list just to function.
The 27-year-old is now suing her father's estate in court to get hold of her $12m estate.
Her family, on the other hand, say these are just excuses to avoid fulfilling her late father's wishes.
"We’d like her to get a job and contribute to society. Instead of her agreeing to her dead dad’s wishes, she turned around and sued her trust," Clare's cousin Jimmy said, who was co-appointed executor of the estate.
"We are at our wits end. We have done nothing but love Clare."

When asked whether she wants a job, the 27-year-old answered "yes and no" and again cited her disability.
"I just want what is rightfully mine. And I want these people to get out of their heads that I am ever going to get a job," Clare said.
