The 5B opportunity helps to cover the cost which most would incur anyway for the chosen currency to earn, but it would ONLY cover the cost when the 5% ACTUALLY POSTS. If it does not post, you lose more than your time, your 2% cash back is eaten up by the extra CVS cost... Such simple math.
I'm at a loss to understand why you waste your time posting cr@p like this. Do you enjoy restating the obvious and then throwing out minor digs?

"The 5B opportunity helps to cover the cost which most would incur anyway for the chosen currency to earn..."

That doesn't even make any sense.
