Bergen County player hits $1,000 a day for life jackpot as Millionaire for Life launch nears

TRENTON, NJ – A Bergen County lottery player matched all five numbers and the Cash Ball in Thursday night’s CASH4LIFE drawing, securing the $1,000 a Day for Life grand prize with a cash value of $7,000,000 just days before the game is set to be replaced.

The winning numbers were 51, 54, 57, 59 and 60. The Cash Ball was 03.

The ticket was sold at Krauszer’s Liquor Wine & Food Store, 123 Valley Brook Ave., Lyndhurst. The retailer will receive a $30,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.

The $1,000 a Day for Life prize provides winners with daily payments for life or a one-time cash option valued at $7,000,000.

The win comes ahead of the launch of Millionaire for Life, which begins Sunday. The new draw game will offer a top prize of $1,000,000 a year for life. Tickets cost $5, and players will select five numbers from 1 to 58 and one Millionaire Ball number from 1 to 5. The cash value for the top prize will increase from $7,000,000 under CASH4LIFE to $18,000,000 under the new game. Drawings will be held daily at 11:15 p.m.
