Boast - This word, as a verb, means to show others what you've got, or tell them what you've done, in an arrogant way, especially if you are wealthy of successful. Used as a noun, it just refers to an example of such boasting.
Examples:
"Believe me, I'm really smart" the president boasted.
Someone sent me a YouTube clip of the president boasting about how big his hands are.
The president started talking about all the beautiful models he'd had affairs with but the interviewer ignored the boast and started asking him about his ties to Russia
