I'm wanting to know what people think is better. Kaiser or ucla health for working as an admin staff. Ucla seems to have good pay from what I see on the job descriptions but kaiser only shows pay grade. Ucla has pension and a raise it seems every year. But I was alao told kaiser offers a dollar each year as a raise. I want a place I can grown and stsy Long term. Any one have any insight on kaiser and what they offered.UCLA Health Kaiser Permanente

Moneys meant to be spent, be reasonable but if you don’t enjoy the money you make why are you working? Treat yourself! You are a king my guy
I always plan a trip, while spending money on things is nice, I think experiences especially to a unique place or abroad you will never forget. However, I am planning after completing my first major project buying myself a nice watch. Being able to look down at the wrist and be reminded of all the hard work that got you the timepiece is also something I think is special.
A lot easier to explore cities, hike mountains, or travel in general when you are younger so if you have the money and are responsible with money better to travel.
I brought a Porsche well leased one, went to mastros, and brought some Dior slides
I always like to plan myself a trip! I always prefer memories to tangible things.
24 million dollars???
What pwc4 said haha- I wish my senior consultant salary paid me 24 mil
I got myself a Le Creuset Dutch oven when I got hired at PwC and went out for a steak dinner when I got promoted to senior associate. Definitely worth commemorating your hard work! And definitely do whatever is going to make you happiest; whether that’s a watch, a car, or expensive cookware 😁
I purchased a nice watch for my first promotion. My plan is to use a portion of each promotion year end bonus to buy a new timepiece!
Boat
It’s funny how they say not to get one & then enjoy it a lot when you do. Just pick the right boat.
With how much I was traveling, I bought myself a tumi
I brought a Porsche well leased one
Don’t worry what other people do. If you want to buy yourself something nice as a reward, then do it.
Buy/make something for your team/direct reports.
A nice bottle of champagne! My promo was from Analyst to Consultant so I didn’t go crazy on the price. I got a Mailly. Their brut $45 one is a budget friendly similar tones of Dom Perignon
^ Or a nice celebratory whisky/bourbon if champagne is not your thing. It also lasts longer than champagne after opening, and you can drink it for other celebratory occasions
I ordered an appetizer and drinks at dinner 😮💨
Trip to the Maldives
I think you should celebrate every win pal! It's a massive achievement to receive any promotion. It's also a great time to reflect and think "Look how far I've come". That's always a good one 😁
Any suggestions?
What about a fancy bottle of wine or bourbon? I got a nice bottle of champagne and my favorite dessert for my last promotion and it was great!
A peloton
Go to Bali or Bora Bora
Hey - 25m here. I got promoted and didn't really mark it. I think I bought like a pair of shoes from Nike 🤣 I would suggest a nice dinner with friends or family, or a break away. Other than that if you want a physical thing, then I'd suggest making it something substantial/memorable or something you use on a daily basis / have wanted for a while. (Watch, tablet, headphones, cool piece of tech)
