Last week, our roundup featured all Plutus Award nominees. However, there wasn’t room for all the nominees last week. So this week, the roundup will feature even more nominees. Plutus Awards season is in full swing, and it’s exciting to be one of the nominees. Indeed, many of the blogs I write for are nominees (including Financial Highway), as well as my own nomination as a Blog Contributor. So, if you haven’t yet voted, head on over. And enjoy these posts from Plutus finalists:
