Charlie Sheen, Your Cash Is Waiting

摘要

California Controller John Chiang has $20 for Warren Buffett. He also has a little over a grand for Charlie Sheen. The money is part of a $6.1 billion cache of abandoned property-dormant savings accounts, store credits, forsaken royalty payments, and the like-that companies are required by law to turn over to the state after three years. The task of re- turning the property to its 13.1 million rightful owners, who often aren't aware they're owed money, falls to Chiang. "It just keeps coming in," says Hallye Jordan, a spokeswoman for Chiang, who herself has $66.58 in abandoned property she hasn't had time to claim.
