According to my parents, the only reason why they have the EE bonds was they use to work for NASA a long time ago, and at the government agency and defense contractors, they all pushed for the EE bonds. My parents didn’t know what to do with them and kept them in a safe deposit box in the bank since they were all paper at the time. I went to move some of the personal items I had in that box since I was a kid and saw like 4 stacks of the EE bonds, some as going back to the late 1970’s… I guess they forgot about them, and I was like “you know some of these stopped accruing interest for a long time now”…And they were like “oh”….And so off they went to trying to figure out how to cash them in…
Chase in DelMar supposedly has 2 machines that they can use to verify the EE bonds. A few notes were so old, one of the machines was having a hard time with them.
I asked if they had any extra deeds to real estate or land in California since the 1970’s that I’m not aware of that I’m not aware of…Unfortunately, that was a negative 🙁
