I got a phone call today with some relatively good news. Turns out my dad at some point had opened an account in my name I never knew about.
It got me thinking that I didn't know if there might be other things he owned or had or did that I didn't know about. Same with my mom. Accounts and assets get turned over to the state at some point, but you can still claim them if you make the effort.
The main site is
https://www.missingmoney.com/When I ran this, I initially did all states because I didn't know where they might have had assets.
When the search results came back too large, I tried to narrow it down to GA and it said that GA didn't participate, but has their own web site.
https://dor.georgia.gov/unclaimed-property-programI didn't find anything on them, but found I think seven lines for myself!
I can't imagine what they are, but I clicked the checkmarks next to my name and sent off for the info. I can't help but wonder if the bulk of it is rebate checks I never cashed, but there might be a gem or two in there. Fingers crossed!
