quitting after bonus, only did 1 year, nothing lined up, am i screwed

never been more miserable in banking. quitting in 2 weeks with nothing lined up. will use my (low) bonus to keep me afloat interms of rent. Is this fine to do?

No interest in PE / HF at all. I know those are way more strict on doing 2 years.

I would not pay rent in this shitty market, is it possible to move back with your parents?
