When you had your first job what did you do when you receive your first pay cheque? Did you buy it on something to remind your or did you just treat your family with a special meal? How happy were your when you have it in your hands? Anybody is free to post their ideas?

My goodness! That was a very long time ago. I think I treated my family and friends with my first paycheck. I cannot recall much now.

My very first paycheck I put into savings. I was a teenager and still living with my parents, so my expenses were quite low and I had the luxury of being able to build my savings that way. For my first job as an "adult" (ie, out of college), I used my first paycheck to pay rent and living expenses, and whatever was left over I saved.

I invest the 50% in more stuff for make more money haha , the economist rule, if you want more money invest or keep it in your pocket and the other 50% i spent it in shopping :) I was so happy too, i bought clothes.
