I advise everyone to do a missing money search. You can just Google your state and the term abandoned property. I was working with a client's son to help his girlfriend locate a brokerage account that belonged to her deceased grandmother. We found the account easily in the NJ state abandoned property database (nj like many states outsources this to a third party). For kicks, I ran my own name through the database and was suprised to find three entries because I couldn't imagine that I had forgotten about any money. I filled out the forms last month and did not really expect to get anythibng. Well I got the first check today -'-- $2,230.00 from Vanguard. I'm keeping fingers crossed on the others. Let us know if you find anything.....I'd be curious to know how it turns out for others.
