In my work as a professional organizer, I frequently find clients have lost track of accounts or small pension plans because they’ve relocated.
I was recently alerted to the very real danger of losing these inactive accounts – thanks to Ann W. Damani-McKinney, CPO, Conceivable Solutions, Inc.
As States look for ways to boost their incomes, they are becoming stricter about claiming inactive accounts – One non-commercial site, the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators, allows you to search by individual state.

Happy hunting!
