[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One here one day someone posted about unclaimed property.  I searched my maiden name in the state whre I grew up and there was something from my Godfather (uncle) who died when I was 10.  He never married but had a life insurance policy through his job and had made me beneficiary.  He died in a work place accident but no idea about the policy.  Fast forward to when I found it between the policy, some settlements and fines to the company the grand total was over $1 mil.  Just sitting there for decades.[/quote]

Amazing! And that it started with a post on DCUM![/quote]

Wow! [b]And you were actually able to get it?[/b] That is amazing. So cool and nice of him to include you.

I waste a lot of time on this site, but it has benefited me financially also. I was completely overwhelmed with work/parenting/life when interest rates were so low a few years ago. Never ever would have refinanced if I hadn't seen people talking here. I was barely surviving. Was able to refinance for a very low rate and 15 yr mortgage so knocked off years of mortgage payments.

It took a lot to get it because he died in 1982, the cases regarding the accident (there were a few similar accidents at the company) pertained to him but didn't mention him, lots of legal firms, company has since gone under, etc.  But once it was in the system it just sat there and finally digitized.  I had to get a lawyer  and jump through hoops but all worked out in the end.[/quote]
