I was going to make a thread on why I think Jackson is so desperate to win, but I'll just put my thoughts in here instead. Okay, right, so Jackson's supposedly a model. I'm guessing he earns a lot going by the fact that he told Georgina that he'd buy her a Cartier (watch?) when he got out. Now, on the Cartier site the average price is about £3,000. I'm guessing that Jackson wants to convince the viewers that he doesn't have that much on the outside and took the £5,000 as part of his plan to try and convince us that he's not well off. If he wins, or gets very close to the winner, this will mean more modelling jobs, and maybe more much better paid ones. If he's already loaded, he'll probably be getting double for every modelling job than he was getting before he went in.
