If by the term "read" you mean notifying the beneficiaries of the contents of the will, yes, as long as the will has been admitted to probate. The requirement of giving notice of the probate of the will isbased on the probate itself, not whether there is any money in the estate. The so-called "reading" of the will, portrayed so dramatically in movies and TV, practically never takes place anymore. Modern practice is just to send copies of the will to the beneficiaries.

How do you find out if someone left you money?

You should receive a notice from the executor or the attorney who is handling the estate as long as your address is known. If you are speaking of a particular decedent, you can check the decedent's name in the local probate court records to see if an estate was filed. If there is an estate, you can visit the court and read the will.
