"You just got a bonus. And not just any bonus - the kind of bonus where you can say “F*ck it,” and head to Encino to pretend you’re LeBron James for a day. And while LeBron’s probably eating at Nobu, you know that you can find better sushi at Shin, the strip mall spot right off the 101 behind an Office Depot. Come early, and you might be the only person sitting at Take-san’s bar, but you’ll still get the full show, including Washington oysters, Japanese conch, and bluefish from Boston that tastes so fresh you can practically hear it talking about Bill Belichick. Add in some sake, and you’ll go a bit over $100 - but what else are you going to do with that bonus, save it?" - brett keating
