Do you have lost or unclaimed money somewhere? It turns out I did to my utter shock and amazement.

By filling out a simple free online form at a legitimate government website, I recovered about $20 from WA and $285 from OH. The WA was a no-brainer. OH required some documentation and included about $100 of interest for money sitting in a childhood bank account for over 60 years. Call me at 509 220 1879 if you want some details.

What is the best website to find unclaimed money?

It is the website of the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators. This is a legitimate site created by state officials to help people search for funds that may belong to you or your relatives. Searches are free.
