Don't know if it's true or not but the math is slightly off. To get the 125,000 miles you need 62,500 points (2,500 bonus starwood points per sub) or 25 subs, at $60 each, which is $1,500. Still a great deal!</font>
The math looks OK to me. To get the 62,500 Starpoints, you only need 52,500 Starpoints! When you transfer them to a FF program, you get a 5,000-Starpoint bonus per 20,000 transferred:

"For every 20,000 Starpoints, Starwood will award you with an additional 5,000 Starpoints, which will automatically be added to your transfer—making a free flight that much closer."
