You Might Be Rich – Dateline NBC – MSNBC
It’s about time someone with some caliber gets the word out about unclaimed money.
By the way, unclaimed money, unclaimed property, missing money, unclaimed funds and similar terms are used interchangeably in regards to unclaimed money. essentially they are the same thing.
i digress…
Tiki Barber was featured on a Dateline special helping unsuspecting owners of unclaimed property get the money back into the rightful owners hands.
It was very entertaining and heart warming to see some of these people receive their funds.
Two lucky individuals received enormous amounts in funds they didn’t know they owned. It is enough to make anyone wonder if they too might have some money.

Over $5 billion California Unclaimed Money
Seeing as to how large the Golden State is and the large number of celebrities and busy high rollers doing business there, it’s actually not surprising that the California unclaimed money pile comes second to New York’s whopping $8 billion. What’s puzzling is the number of famous people owed cash from state unclaimed property. It’s not as if these people are difficult for the Unclaimed Property Division to locate. I mean who would have trouble trying to contact the whereabouts of ‘Brangelina’ (yes, both of them), Victoria (Posh Spice) Beckham, Keanu Reeves, J-Lo, Adam Sandler and other world-famous stars? Even State council board members are coming-up on the list of State unclaimed property. Southwestern College President Raj Chopra, county Supervisor Greg Cox, administrator of Scripps Mercy Hospital Chula Vista Pete Mabrey, Imperial Beach Councilman Fred McLean, Coronado Councilman Al Ovrom, and several other State public figures are apparently owed CA unclaimed funds form lost assets, according to a report in the San Diego Union Tribune.
New state laws have since been adopted replacing the ones that kept the California Unclaimed Property Division to aggressively locate and contact citizens owed unclaimed money in California. The amount reunited to owners after the new laws took effect at the end of 07 amounts to $284 million- a significant improvement. But a lot of people are still missing money out there. $1.2 billion are owed to Northern California residents and a whopping $300,000 to a Sacramento non-profit organization. The Golden State currently leads the country in the highest amount of unclaimed tax refunds at $40 million belonging to 500,000 Californians unfiled.
Everyone should take the initiative and do an unclaimed money search. Who knows? With the holidays coming, everyone needs extra cash for presents and extras. It’s not just in the Golden State either- all 50 states have significant amount of cash belonging to its residents who have lost track of their assets.

Oregon Unclaimed Money
Crater Lake, located in the Hazelnut State, is the deepest lake in the United States and rests on the remnants of an ancient volcano. Unknown to most residents another substance sits en masse inside the State’s Unclaimed Property Division- a quarter of a billion dollars in Oregon unclaimed money.
According to Cyndi Wickham of Oregon’s Department of State Lands in a report by local tv station KGW, “We’re holding money for one in four Oregonians. You have better chances at [getting] this money than winning the lottery.”
Here’s part of an interesting article on Oregon unclaimed funds:
Each year, the state of Oregon receives between $30 and $40 million in unclaimed property, but only returns about $10 million to the rightful owners. Since the owners of the other $20 to $30 million weren’t located, that money gets added to the total, so that $250 million on stands to grow. While it may be tough to believe that 1 in 3 Oregon residents are due a claim, these monies really come from sources that we all use everyday. The OR Department of State Lands describes some of the most common sources as follows:“Unclaimed property includes savings accounts, checking accounts, unpaid wages or commissions, stocks, dividends proceeds, refunds, money orders, paid-up life insurance policies, utility deposits and contents of safe deposit boxes.”
With the fall of the financial giants at Wall Street and threat of another recession, learning how to do an online unclaimed money search can be your best bet of getting extra spending cash in people’s hands.

Nevada Unclaimed Money
The State’s Unclaimed Property Office owes citizens almost $300 million from Nevada unclaimed property and all these people have to do is to step-up and file a claim. State Treasurer Kate Marshall recently had 2,500 Western Nevadans on the State Unclaimed Property list who had at least $50 coming to them. Unclaimed property can come from abandoned bank accounts, uncollected rebate checks, payroll, etc. “It can be dozens of things,” said the Treasurer. “And people always say, ‘Oh, I know where my money is.’ But they don’t.” The odds of finding Nevada unclaimed property money are actually better than winning in Sin City’s casinos. Problem is, people there aren’t aware that the State has their missing money.
