For lack of a better place to post this, regarding Citi AA retention offers. Personal = none, so closed that account. Biz = $99 statement credit or 7,500mi (worse offer) for 1k spend in 3mon. I asked if they had a higher retention offer for more spend, but they said no. Undecided, but leaning toward closing.

Let them go bankrupt — the companies don’t cease to exist when they go bankrupt, the equity just gets wiped out and the debt holders take over. Only after bankruptcy should the government consider bailouts/support — the equity holders over-leveraged the company which put it in this position and now they are going to be rewarded with taxpayer dollars.
