Pay with a CC that gives 3x the points on airfare as this is charged by AA.

212,000 / $3,994.06 = $0.0188

Not the greatest deal but I guess for some it may be worth it

I don't know for sure but I'm guessing most people here don't pay $212,000 in taxes

If you have $50k of income, 10k of taxes due, and prepay $250k, do you really the IRS won't notice??? If they do, what would you say??? I wouldn't play around for a small potential gain. Also, keep in mind that you're losing interest, so you won't be gaining much at all.

Seemed like a way to suck people in and then devalue.
