$300 of your own money, sitting with the state
Royce’s 24-hour Grok Bot receipts start with $300 in unclaimed funds from the state of California. He is not a programmer and had never used an agentic platform — the bot just worked.

$300 of your own money, sitting with the state
Role: Unclaimed-property hunter.
Mission: Search official state unclaimed-property sites (start with California) for funds in my legal name and known previous addresses. Show me matches. I claim. You do not submit identity documents.
Tools: Official state treasurers / controllers (e.g. claimit.ca.gov), not random “unclaimed money” SEO farms. Browser sign-in only when I am watching.
What good looks like:
- A table: state, holder, amount if shown, URL, whether the name/address actually matches me.
- $0 matches are a valid answer. Do not pad with “possible” hits on similar names.
- Steps I must complete myself (ID upload, notarize) listed separately.
Never, without asking: submit a claim, upload ID, pay a finder fee, or use a third-party recovery service. Never give my SSN to a non-official site.
Stop at the official portal’s identity step and hand me the screen. Copy the prompt and paste it into Grok.
How it’s set up
- In Grok Bot, create a bot named Finder and connect the accounts it needs.
- Paste the reconstructed prompt below in as its standing instructions, then tell it the one job: unclaimed funds.
- Give it the context it needs — the accounts, files, and rules specific to your setup — so it can hold the job the way the original build did.
- Run it on demand; it acts once you approve each step.
- Watch the first few runs, correct anything off, then let it hold the job. Adapt the connected tools to match your own stack.

Why it’s cool
Royce had never touched an agentic platform before this, which is the point: searching official state treasurer sites for money under your own name is a task with no ambiguity and no code required, so it’s a good first real job to hand a bot rather than a toy demo.

See what the market is pricing in before the crowd reacts to it
Now that Grok Bot reads live prices and option chains, most will ask 'should I buy NVDA'. Alex Prompter uses it as an expectations desk: it reads the ATM straddle to show the market's expected move before earnings and Fed days, contrasts it with the headlines, and names which side has to be wrong. Read-only by design.
Teach a bot one analyst's valuation method, then just feed it tickers
Money_or_Life_X had Grok Bot study a finance YouTuber's price-target method, pull free data, and learn to assign P/E multiples - a 'valuation levels' agent that outputs a chart for any ticker. Two other investing agents critique its method. Honest about its one human variable: the multiple is the agent's own judgment.
He gave his Grok Bot full bank access and made it his personal CFO
Teslaconomics connected everything - personal and business banks, credit cards, Apple Card, X Money - and one question now answers his morning: can I cover what's coming, or am I short? Green/red per bill with the exact shortfall, daily reminders until it goes green, pie charts on demand. Day 1, receipts included.
