Audio Version: Let Me Hear It!
Your money could be out there somewhere and we’re not talking about the unexpected $20 you find in your skinny jeans. It’s possible that you never claimed money that was owed to you when you moved, changed jobs or refinanced your home. In other words, you didn’t leave an easy enough trail for your money to find you. While the government is kind enough to hold on to it for you, it’s going to make you come and get it.
Take 5 minutes to visit www.unclaimed.org, the non-profit website that works with State Treasurers on unclaimed property issues. Once on your state’s official page, just enter your name and city in the database. As much as you may want to, don’t forget about your past! Check states you’ve previously lived in, too.
Next round of drinks is on you if you find some dough. Happy hunting!
