What are you going to do with $348!

Let I first say that my mind set is different on other people. I like to see money and I hate to spend it. If I was in your situation, honestly, what I would do is to pay all the bills and then the remaining I save. You see to me a reward will be money already. Buying something else with that money in my eyes seem as if I am giving away my reward to someone else. Like I say, I hate to spend, I ust to love to see that money in my possession. Well that me and I am going towards my goal of becoming a millionaire.

I had gone through this scenario before when i was still a single. I earned, save and even spend the money almost all on myself. But, i do give a portion of my salary to my parents. I was very happy especially during year-end because my company always declared the bonus on that time. Every month, i will save around 20% from my monthly salary but for the bonus, i will save around 50% of it. Because i always trying my best to keep the money for my future needs.

That's a good news. I will save and maybe spend some of it for my brother and sister's enrollment this June. Take a part from Mid-year bonus and buy some grocery and important needs inside the house. Also, I will buy a piece of chicken lechon to treat my family and serves as a thanksgiving for early salary payment.

When I was still single, I was very happy to receive my first bonus on my first permanent job. After treating my mother at the nearest duty free shop and brought her the groceries she wanted, I brought a bracelet for myself. The next day when I went to work, I was so proud to wear it to the office. During the day, my boss asked me to do an errand. I rode in a tricycle and after a few minutes that I arrive in our office, I notice that my bracelet is missing. I was miserable the whole week and until now, I could still imagine how my bracelet looks like. It could worth more than thrice it's price today if I did not lost it. Better to think it over before you spend it. A nice jewelry would be a good investment than the latest technology because it's value will become higher in the future.

If it was my first salary, i will give to our church as an offering. Just like the Israelites giving the first fruit of their harvest. If it was the succeeding salary, I will save 20% of it and then I will use 80% for our daily needs.

I would Buy some New Clothes or Maybe some Music but not Spend All the Money around $48.00. If the Job will Last and is Current. Maybe some more Stuff I will Buy that I Need like more New Clothes or Shoes.

If I was in that situation. I'd use it for my family and towards my tuition. Those are more critical than my desired extravagance. However, I'd use a very small fraction of it, like $10 or something to treat myself.

I would probably first check if that is truly my money. It's easier to do this now by the use of online banking. If I could truly prove that money is mine, then I'd probably spend a little for my wardrobe because I have not shopped for myself for several months. Then I'd take 10% to give to charity or church to thank God for the grace. Then a little portion to my investment/mutual funds for my future. Then the rest I'd slowly live-on the daily needs of my family without being boastful. Neither do I need to announce it to the world. At least for a few months, it would be something that would make me feel secure. I don't think I'd do some hard investing on it, it's too small to truly invest on a business or something. I guess it's just a gift for me to enjoy but not hastily. Neither do I think that it's money to be used for drinking and partying, in my experience in life, I usually get surprised on my account to see that I have spare money. Then suddenly I realize it's for something that is some sort of an emergency, and I'm just glad I have that spare money. Have a great MyLot experience!

i will save that money for some hard times to come coz nobody knows whats going to happen the next second.

Well, I say take a deep breath first and resist the urge to withdraw and spend! Make a budget before spending it all. And, like the others have suggested try to save some. I always make the mistake of splurging all my money and in times of need, I regret it.

Well to be honest it isn't that much but I would save all of it and well I would treat myself to a treadmill or other exercise equipment keeps me healthy too and probably add a few more years to my life to receive another bonus like this one lol

Not a big amount, but I would always first pay the bills and any day to day requirement I may have, like go to the store for food. That must be before everything else, then the most important bills and then save the rest for my family or myself if I want to buy something.

- 10-20% of the money should go to savings at least. - Pay all bills - Remaining amount is up to you.

I WILL USE THESE MONY buy beautiful cloth ,oye

After I made sure it was truly mine to keep and not a mistake.I would pay put it up for savings and pay bills,of course.Spend a little on something I wanted.Not too much though.Good luck.
