Need some extra cash?:

  1. Give it a shot, you never know. Go to MissingMoney.com. Featured on CNN; officially endorsed by NAUPA (National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators). A government program that will assist you in thoroughly searching all participating states to find your family’s missing, lost, and unclaimed property, money and assets. CNN featured this and found people that actually had money (up to $2,000,000) in a lost will and what have you. I would have thought it was a scam if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes. Who know’s, maybe you’ll strike it rich… ehem’ Do I get a finders fee people? Haha j/k.
