Yeah, you read that headline correctly. Today, the government of Alberta put out a press release talking about all the unclaimed money in the province. And the craziest part? One person has yet to claim over $900,000 in uncashed dividends.
How does that happen? Great question, and we can’t provide the full answer. What we can say though is that it belongs to a poll of $103,000,000 sitting around in ‘forgotten funds’.

Which we still can’t wrap our heads around. But hey, we’re living in some strange days. If you’d like to learn more about Alberta’s forgotten funds or see if you’ve got some unclaimed cash sitting around, just click here!
