A Check with Your Name on it????? Cash in!

With the new year we are all forced to take a long hard look at ourselves and the damage we have done to our check books, credit cards and bank statements. Being a giver comes with a price and we all must face the music, look at the red and get back to black. The 'eat, drink and be merry' attitude often has a way of leading us into that over spending territory, leading many people to focus on their finances in the new year. Lucky for you I know of a land where money grows on trees... okay, maybe not exactly, but, I did hear of a place called the California State Controller’s Office. Turns out in the magic office of the state controller there are pages and pages and pages of unclaimed property, and by property I mean CASH owed to YOU. See the excerpt from the website below:


Here’s the deal, if you have ever been included in a class action lawsuit, over paid your electric bill or medical insurance, been a member of a gym that's ripped you off... etc, you probably have money sitting in the magic land of the controller waiting for you to claim it. It took me 30 seconds to find out that I have a BIG FAT CHECK with my name on it just waiting for me to fill out the form and have it sent my way. Here’s why: Several years ago I was a member of 24 hour fitness. They were sued for continuing to charge their members for three months, (or longer), after they cancelled their memberships! I  was notified of the lawsuit but I moved. When I tried to follow up on my money I found out the settlement had been delayed. Then I forgot about it. (It’s been a longggggg time!) Now, thanks to the Unclaimed Property Law I’m getting the money I deserve. 
So, do yourself a favor and check it out. It takes just minutes to search and who knows, you could have a huge check with your name on it!! 





A special thanks to my brother for watching the news and searching my name!! Love you. Good Luck to All!! Xo.
