And, of course, that's the problem with his strategy. He is likely to lose everything he spends on manufacturing spending this month. It's not a huge expense, but it's real money -- and real time.

Now he may believe he can sue Citi for it, and perhaps that will work, but most folks might conclude that it's not worth the time/hassle/risk.
You are correct--and you must know me well hehe. I do plan to hit the same numbers for June and maybe go a bit higher (then again I could see myself easily doubling it because that's what MMs do!)... we shall see if I live til June 28 and earn more points, or if they eventually nab me too. If so, however, I think I have more than "been paid" for my time and fees of things I manufactured. A trip for 4 to GCM and some GCs for stores we shop at aint bad for now!

Of course, I say this now... so I will try to remember I've just said all this tho lol
