unclaimed money fron the state of floridaI read an article about a First Coast woman that just received a check for over $28,000 from the State of Florida Bureau of Unclaimed Property.

I knew this existed, but I leave the search for windfalls to my wife, who takes care of things like joining class-action lawsuits and filing for insurance claims for us. But, it was early, I was awake, and I was bored.

I went to the site and did a search for my last name. I found 4 accounts in my late grandfather’s name, all stock. Two of the accounts were for the same company, which I recognized. I recognized a second company, also. Both are tech companies. The third company appears to be a bank.

Oh well, more money for my father and uncles to claim. Sigh. Maybe they’ll give me a finders’ fee?
