Can I earn additional SkyMiles?
Absolutely! Here's how:
Open additional eligible accounts. Once your initial account is activated, you can receive up to 25,000 SkyMiles for each new eligible individual or joint account you open and fund, up to a maximum of 50,000 miles per calendar year.
The additional account(s) must be of a different type than any accounts you already have at E*TRADE.

then is states:
What kinds of E*TRADE accounts are eligible to earn SkyMiles?
This offer applies only to individual or joint brokerage accounts. Not valid for IRA, SEP-IRA, SIMPLE IRA, investment club, business (corporate, partnership, sole proprietor), non-U.S. corporate, profit sharing plan (KEOGH), money purchase plan (KEOGH), trust, custodial or E*TRADE BankŪ accounts.
Note: Only one account per person, per account type will be awarded miles.

Am I reading this correctly? I can earn more miles by opening more accounts, but they only allow one account per person, per account type.
So could I open an individual AND joint account and get miles on both? You could earn 10k miles for parking $2k for 6-months. not a bad ROI...
