The very first thing you bought with your bonus.
This is very intriguing to me and have always wondered what people buy when they receive their bonus in this particular industry.

I never had loans, so maybe a different story if I did but I never understood the point of running out and buying something post bonus. If it's something I really want, why wait until bonus? If not, I just don't feel the need to spend the money.

Omega. Banked everything since. Drive an old car, live in a cheap apartment, spend little money, and have ~70% of my liquidity in a money market fund yielding 4.5%.
Sounds fun
Different strokes for different folks. Enjoy your golden handcuffs.
I always donate 5% of my bonus to the against malaria fund, then use the rest to buy VTI & VXUS
Damn Mr. Bill Gates over here

The first thing I did with my bonus was pay for food, rent, and headhunters after the firm axed my head like Hainan chicken. Then they had the audacity to ask me to come back after they hired a retard to replace me.... after I had spent all my bonus to survive! I made sure to properly give them the run around with fake bids on their sell-side mandates once I made it to the buyside. I'm talking months of work for zero ROI. That is how finance works, tits for tats.
