Everyone who sent me their Form #2 in July for my Emigrant Direct Referral Bonus should have been paid this week. If not, please e-mail me. If you’re interested in moving to Emigrant Direct’s 5.15% APY with no minimums, why not get up to $20?
Ok, I’ve covered the Big Stuff. I save well over 20% of my income, and it’s already invested in low-cost index funds. But what about the Little Stuff, like making money off bank bonuses? What kind of money are we talking about? Let’s break it down a little and give some annual estimates. I’m going to ignore chasing the best interest rates for now.
Buying things with rewards credit cards: $300-$600
$100+ Credit card signup bonuses: $400-600
Bank signup bonuses (Example): $200-400
Other bonuses and perks (Example): $100-$200
0% APR Balance Transfer offers (How To Do This): $500-$1,500
Bored Money like surveys and stuff: $100-$200

Total: $1,500 to $3,500 a year!
