Beenish Tariq, 20, won $5 million after she scratched the numbers off the winning lottery ticket she got from her father. The winning ticket came from the Chucking Deli on 45th Ave. in Manhattan where her father, M.T. Qureshi, 48, bought three $5 Million Instant Scratch-off tickets over Christmas, stated a New York Lottery press release. Tariq admits to having a mixture of feelings: shock, surprise and ecstasy combined.

According to the release, Tariq will receive her $5 million prize in annual pre-tax payments of $250,000 for the next 20 years.

A senior at Baruch College, Tariq plans on getting an M.B.A at Columbia University after she graduates in May 2005 and thereafter pursuing her dream of becoming an investment banker.

“It has meant a stress free future,” her father, Qureshi, 48 said. With cost no bar, Tariq and her family are now looking to move out of their current apartment in Flushing to a big house on Long Island with a Lexus and sports car to occupy the garage, a report said.
