Found Money $17.63

Sometimes the strangest blessings come at the strangest times.  Today my sister received at her address a letter for me.  There was a short time when I moved back to Minnesota from Wisconsin (ten years ago) that I had my mail forwarded to her address. 

A couple of times a year she gets a piece of mail for me.  Most of the time it is irrelevant and useless junk mail.  Not the mail that was received today.  It was a check for $17.63 such an odd amount. 

The electric company that I used when I was in Wisconsin won some kind of a court case that affected clients from 1999-2006.  I lived there from 2000-2003.  As a result of the funds received by the electric company, they are distributing $1.26 million according to "usage" during that time period.  WOW, I'm glad I don't work in that office.

I would encourage you to go to this website and check every state that you have ever lived in or worked.  http://www.unclaimed.org/  If it would not have been for using my sisters address as a forwarding address, I would have had lost money. (I checked again and I don't have anything out there.  But my brother might. The next thing that I'll do is to send him and e-mail.)
