Hernando County Man Wins $1 Million in Florida Lottery
A Hernando County man has struck it rich after winning $1 million from the Florida Lottery. The lucky winner, who chose to remain anonymous, claimed his prize from the $1,000,000 A YEAR FOR LIFE SPECTACULAR scratch-off game. The ticket was purchased at a Winn-Dixie store located at 3430 Deltona Boulevard in Spring Hill.
The winner opted for a one-time, lump-sum payment of $640,000.00. This decision reflects a common choice among lottery winners who prefer immediate access to their winnings rather than annuity payments spread over time. The $1,000,000 A YEAR FOR LIFE SPECTACULAR game offers players the chance to win top prizes of $1 million annually for life or a lump sum of $7.4 million.
The Florida Lottery continues to be a significant source of revenue for the state, contributing to education and various state programs. The Winn-Dixie store where the winning ticket was sold will also receive a $2,000 bonus commission for selling the ticket.
This win adds to the excitement surrounding the Florida Lottery, as residents continue to dream of striking it big. The $1,000,000 A YEAR FOR LIFE SPECTACULAR game, launched in February 2021, has seen multiple winners since its inception, keeping the thrill alive among participants.
