How does this work when a mod creates another topic on same subject?

The same way it would work if anybody else created a thread about using TD Ameritrade as a backdoor into Schwab. If one just wants to post a link to news articles or discuss the merger itself as it relates to the articles, CIN is the correct place.

Soooo, from one Mod to another Mod lol. Assuming the deal goes through and regulators give it the green light (lots of hurdles to clear), I realize this would have some impacts related to cash management products. I can only imagine the product restructuring given both brokerage platforms. That said, I wonder if the TD Ameritrade Client Rewards CC would remain with TD Bank or change hands with another issuer? Ok, so wishful thinking it goes with AmEx

Ooh... that's a great question - I was overlooking the TD Ameritrade Client Rewards CC completely! 
I've always figured at some point a Schwab Platinum will be in my future but of course a Schwab account is a prerequisite. I don't mind playing the long-game if it is advantageous (avoiding a HP isn't critical, but I'll take it).

There's definitely some known "unknowns", but I can honestly say that I never got a HP when I opened both the Schwab brokerage and investor checking accounts last year. So, perhaps going through TD Ameritrade today as a 'backdoor' option may be more strategic if the HP is still part of their current SOP. I'm still waiting for a targeted 100K MR offer for the Schwab Platinum (if I ever get to see one). But, no complaints on the Schwab Investor AmEx
Although, I was interested in adding the TD Ameritrade Visa at one point, but not sure what its fate will be... whether it would continue to be serviced by TD Bank or transition to AmEX much like the Citi Hilton Reserve portfolio went to AmEx.
