Company Bonus

Our company bonuses came out Friday and people have already started buying new electronics.

I, on the other hand, have earmarked 80% of it for a money market account with a 4.6 %APR through Virtual Bank. I'll probably add the other 20% but I don't like to be too impulsive with my saving. (I get 20$ for signing up and once my account is set up I can invite friends). I think I was bouncy as I described it to my co workers.

I get teased because I'm usually the only one with disposable income (no kids) but I also spend way less.

My whole approach to bonuses is that they're "extra money". I don't plan them in my financial decisions and I don't miss the money if I chuck it in savings. Plus .... 4.6% APR!!!!! What could be better than that? Well... ;)

Thanks to Neo for letting me know about it.
