State Awards Woman Record Amount From Forgotten Investment
A Kansas City woman has claimed $6.1 million that had been held in Missouri's Unclaimed Property Program.The
money came from an investment that one of the woman's relatives made in
an obscure company several years ago. The stock was lost, but the value
of the investment eventually grew to $6.1 million.The woman, who wanted to remain anonymous, claimed a record amount under the state's program."There
is so much money that's out there waiting for Americans to claim," said
Missouri State Treasurer Clint Zweifel. "Just to give you an example,
in Missouri alone, I have more than $600 million on hand waiting for
Missourians."He said the money can come from forgotten apartment
security deposits, uncashed final paychecks, abandoned bank deposits and
other places.
