What's the first thing you'll buy when you're officially an RN?

Published

Saw this thread in the Male Nurse forum and thought it was a great idea. What is the first thing you'll do in terms of purchases when you're officially a nurse. I would like to start heavily paying off my student loans, save up for a house, and get weekly pedicures! What about you?

Tithe! Give thanks to my creator, he brought me a mightly long way

Give me parents a good vacation.

Move to fancy high rise in NJ

Lease a snazzy new ride

A designer bag!

All inclusive vacation somewhere hot.

I was hoping to get a car (still searching), but ended up having to pay for my dog's tumor removal surgery with my first pay check. It was worth every cent.

When I get my first RN job: my own car! I've been sharing with my husband and once I'm gone for 12 hour shifts, he's really going to need to have a vehicle at home.

Right after graduation I want to go on a vacation, maybe Paradise Island in the Bahamas.

I want to have my own Bachelorette Pad complete with gadgets and cool stuff. So with that goal in mind no buying anything else for me. Otherwise yes will be doing the practical things of paying down my student loans, saving for apt. Haha I already started with the makeover and I dont even have a job yet. (trendy haircut + facial, eyebrows, make up / dermatologist consult).

After I passed NCLEX-RN I bought a cruiser bike. It has an old fasion look!!! So cute. Everyone who sees my bike always asks where did I get it.

After I get my first RN job, I will have Rhinoplasty done and Dental braces on me.
