Guru’s Wrap-Up

A pretty good bonus that can earn you $450. The Platinum Checking account that is required for the bonus has a $25 fee that can only be waived with a $25K balance. That’s not worth it. So it might be best just to pay the monthly fee until you get the bonus and close the account. Citizen is also offering a bonus up to $500 with checking ans savings.
