My parents gave me some mail a while back that had been sent to their house. I stuffed the mail into a drawer and kind of forgot about it. I recently went through it and found a letter from an employer I had right after high school about my retirement account. I logged onto the website to see what I had and discovered almost seven thousand dollars in the account. I don’t recall the stipulations on the retirement account from the job(I was 19 when I started there so I didn’t pay any attention to it). My question: I didn’t work there five years, just over four years. The account says I am vested and that vesting happens at five years employment. Is this a mistake on their part that I should take advantage of by rolling the money into another account? Or just leave the money alone and let it grow as if I never discovered it in the first place?
