STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — A Staten Island lottery player made the purchase of a lifetime after winning $1,000 a week for life in the Cash4Life game.

Borough resident Carmine Lupo claimed the second prize for matching all six Cash4Life numbers drawn on Feb. 24.

It guarantees a minimum payout of $1 million.

The winning ticket was purchased at the Arden Shell gas station, located at 1769 Arthur Kill Rd., in Arden Heights.

The game-winning numbers that got Lupo the second prize of $1 million were 15, 26, 47, 52, 56 and Cash Ball 2, according to the New York State Lottery.

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.
