The Devil Made me do it - Navy Federal

I have been gardening for almost 2yrs now and decided it was time to step out and play again. The stock market has been red lately and I needed some cheering up. After reading that Devil guy's post about getting approved for NFCU Cash Rewards, I had an epiphany... that card is green and I need some green to counter the stock market red! (cue aha-moment music). And if I get denied I could just blame the devil! Brilliant!

Not only did I get approved, Navy started me up with 25k on my first card with them. Now that's how you welcome someone to your bank! 

 

Relevant DP:

Transunion pulled: 741

Income: 150k

INQ: 4

AAoA: 7yrs

Derog: 1 medical collection from 4yrs ago.

 

I joined Navy this year. I did make them my primary bank with my paycheck directly being deposited there. I have also run some decent amount of money through there. I really wish they had a brokerage account. I would park some funds there. I am very very impressed by my overall banking experience with them. Nice to see a bank that is not just about bleeding you dry, any chance they get... BOA, I'm looking at you.

 

Next stop.... Chase! Kidding. I am not doing that "watching over my shoulder crap again". Next stop BBVA?

Congrats on your new card! And with that monster SL it was worth it to venture out of the garden.

Yeah, I was getting ready to blame you for any denial. So, glad I did not have too. 

And yes, I am waiting for August to play Britney Spears, "hit me baby one more time!"
