Broke: Lindsay Lohan claims she can't afford the $53,000 it will cost to stay at the Betty Ford clinic for the next three monthsLindsay Lohan was clearly relieved on Friday when Judge Elden Fox ordered her back to rehab instead of sending her to jail.
But her probation report raises the question of how exactly the 24-year-old is going to pay the $53,000 charge for her three-month stay.
Lindsay has been ordered to stay at the Betty Ford Clinic until January 3.
The report says: 'She indicates she can not afford to continue to pay for the treatment program and she needs to work.
'[Lohan says] her clothing line is falling apart because she is not available to monitor the product.'
While Lohan's clinic is highly effective at treating people with addictions, it charges them a lot of money for doing so.
Her request to be moved into outpatient care instead was denied by the judge.
Back to Betty: Lohan will be returning to Betty Ford Clinic where she has been ordered to undergo treatment until at least January 3But according to People magazine, Lindsay hasn't allowed rehab to get in the way of business.
The Herbie star continued to work on her 6126 line from inside the centre, and carried on having meetings with whoever she needed to talk to.
'Lindsay is still seeing income from the line, and it's doing three times better than originally expected,' a source says. 'It's keeping her busy and productive.'
Being sent to rehab for the next three months also means that there is no way the actress will be able to film her role as Linda Lovelace in the film Inferno.
The probation report says she 'is claiming that continued inpatient treatment would be a hardship financially, and damaging to her career.'
But it doesn't look as if anyone thinks letting her out of the facility is a good idea, despite the fact that Lindsay claims that rehab is ruining her financially.
All the doctors who have been involved with the actress believe the longer she is in rehab the better.
Probation: Lindsay's probation report stated that she is concerned that in-patient rehabilitation would be a financial hardship and damaging to her careerAccording to Dr. Lee Sadja, who treated Lindsay when she was briefly in rehab at the UCLA Medical Center, she needs to stay in rehab until she can accept her addictions.
'There was some denial regarding her drug addiction. [She] needs to continue to work on her issues in order to save her life,' the report said.
And chemical dependency counselor Gary Richman, agrees, stating she has 'a lot of growing up to do.'
[She] finally began to talk about feeling powerless and about being an addict ... She must make several changes in her life in order to succeed, especially coming from a family of dysfunction.'
