Financial Friday: Getting $125 for $100 Investment

Getting $125 for $100 Investment!
by Alice Shaffer

As I was reading my financial blogs this week, I noticed several of them were discussing that Chase Bank has a new offer of $125 for opening a new checking account. You need to open the checking account with $100 , set up a direct deposit and keep it open for 6 months, or they will deduct the $125 when you close the account. This got me thinking about the upcoming INA Conference. Hotel rooms are $119 a night plus tax. Here is a chance for me to get a room for basically free for saving $100 in a new checking account. "Perfect!" I have that in my savings account over at ING. So as soon as I get my coupon code from one of the blogs, Hustler Money Blog or Maximizing Money I will open my new Chase checking account and be $125 closer to my financial goal for the INA conference.
