Big initial deposit required, but banks paying 4.3% on savings typically do not pay sign-up bonuses. Getting both a good rate and SUB is nice, and unusual.
No direct deposit games - nice. Finally, a bank that doesn't care where the money comes from.
The risk here is that you have to keep $5k in for 60-90 days to get the 4.3%, but CIT can lower the rate in that timeframe. However, CIT has historically had good rates on this account for quite a while - not at the very top of what is available, but certainly within shooting distance of the top. I would expect them to remain competitive.
Live with parents.
No avocado toast. Saving for home, etc

How do you have $50,000+ available without doing shady things in this world?
Always spend less than you make. Save 15%+ of your earnings from the beginning so you don't miss it. Get more education if it means a more fulfilling job with greater pay. Earn like a professional, live like a college student. Don't buy crap just b/c it's on Slickdeals.
I successfully received my $300 deposit bonus on top of the normal interest within the 60 days of deposit!
Thanks. I am over the 60 days as I put in the day the promo went live. Crickets here. Initially said I was signed up and showed on homepage. Now nothing in the offer section and no bonus added. Did you receive an email or anything saying you were getting the bonus?

Are you sure that "Get married" is a good idea to get rich?
I never said get rich. Having a partner that helps bring more money into the household makes things easier (financially). Whether it's 30k or 100k, everything helps. I digress, we're well off topic now.
A few notes regarding this. After initiating the transfer, they keep the money for over 1 week prior to letting you access it (keep in mind if you are transferring a large sum - Initiated 5/13 - Available 5/21 ). The site notes interest is being earned, but if you are not yet at the higher rate with the 5K requirement, I am assuming it stays at their miniscule rate of 0.25% during that time. No change on my dashboard as of yet. I received an email about the promotion several days after signing up, but it doesn't appear to be referenced anywhere on the site at login.

After depositing the funds $25K or $50K whichever bonus you were doing within day 30 of account opening, did you leave the funds in the account till the bonus posted? Or can we withdraw the funds?
My $300 was deposited within 46 days of deposit of funds...................

Live below your means. Increase income. Get married (dual income)
I'm sure you can, especially if you're not a joint owner on her account.

After getting married, don't get divorced... that is -50% net worth.
