A lottery player from New York City has claimed $1 million after purchasing a second-prize Cash4Life ticket, winning $1,000 a week for life, according to lottery officials.
Padam Thakali of Sunnyside, Queens, has claimed the second prize for matching the first five numbers drawn in the Cash4Life game on June 23, 2024. This second prize guarantees a minimum payout of $1 million.
The winning ticket was purchased at Alam and Brothers, located at 42-01 Queens Blvd., in Sunnyside, Queens.
Thakali opted to receive a single lump-sum payment totaling $612,240, after required withholdings.
The winning numbers for that evening were: 9, 16, 27, 37, 57 and Cash Ball 2.
Winning numbers for the Cash4Life game are drawn from a field of 1 to 60. The cash ball is drawn from a separate field of 1 to 4. To win the Cash4Life top prize, match the six numbers on your ticket to the winning six-number combination drawn — five numbers plus the cash ball.
The top prize is $1,000 a day for life. It is payable as a for-life annuity (minimum of 20 years) of $365,000 per year or a one-time lump sum payment at the election of the winner. The amount of the lump sum payment is equal to the estimated cash required to purchase the annuity.
The Cash4Life drawing takes place daily at approximately 9 p.m.
