Five smart ways to invest your annual bonus, because it deserves a bonus too.
Annual bonus season is here in Bermuda. Congratulations on earning yours!
Our team of Clarien Financial Specialists have a lot of great ideas to help you enjoy an even bigger bonus. Just fill out the form and we’ll connect you to one of our experts.
It’s tempting to start thinking of all the things you want to splurge on with your bonus. But here are five smart ways to spend it and, in a way, still treat yourself:
1. Save for a passion fund
Whether it’s for learning a new craft, improving your career prospects, or pursuing further studies, following your passion is never a bad investment.
2. Give your retirement fund a boost
Putting your annual bonus toward your nest egg is your wisest long-term plan. A strong investment strategy may be the key to enjoying your retirement sooner rather than later.
3. Pay down your debt
Do your best to eliminate any high-interest debt. Your credit card balance is your top target. The money you save in foregone interest payments is cash in your pocket.
4. Increase your emergency savings
Consider putting away a portion of your annual bonus into investment vehicles that are virtually risk-free and easy to liquidate for unplanned expenses and financial emergencies.
5. Grow with us
We have the expertise and solutions to help give your annual bonus a bonus of its own. At Clarien, we offer a wide range of investment and deposit options to suite your needs, preferences and risk tolerances:
