How to invest your bonus?

Hello everyone, I am a first-year analyst at a BB in NYC. I am expecting to receive my first yearly bonus within the next couple of months, and my plan is to invest most of it. What are some investment recommendations that you guys have? What assets have you seen to be successful for investing your yearly bonus? What about the bonus for the next years? Thanks in advance.
