An 18-year-old Florida woman has won $26,000 a year for the rest of her life from a ticket that only cost her $1.

Daniela Leon Ruz bought the ticket at her local grocery store for a new scratch-off ticket called $500 A Week For Life, with the odds at the top ticket being one in six million, according to The Florida Lottery.

The lottery put out a statement saying that rather than taking the lump sum of her winnings, Ruz decided to break down the winnings into yearly payments of $26,000 for the rest of her life.
