Our Verdict
Remember this additionally requires opening a financial records, this would make you ineligible for the Citi checking join reward of up to $600. The vast majority would be greatly improved off simply adhering to that checking reward, in light of the fact that to acquire that $600 you’d have to burn through $120,000. The high return investment account is aggressive, however there are higher premium records out there. In light of all that I wouldn’t suggest anyone really do this arrangement.
