We don’t usually post on Thursdays. Then again, we don’t usually get nominated for intangible awards on Wednesdays, either. Yes, 2011 could mark the year in which we finally walk home with a coveted Plutus Award. Flexo, the guy behind Consumerism Commentary, (or his nominating committee) has selected us as one of 5 finalists in the category of Most Controversial Personal Finance Blog. Which is kind of like nominating Danica Patrick as one of the 5 hottest IndyCar drivers.
Should we be flattered? Well, considering that that series of disjointed thoughts masquerading as a website called The Simple Dollar won Best Personal Finance Blog (Single Author) last year, we’ll take solace by parroting the standard line about how it’s an honor just to be nominated. Apparently you’ll be able to vote on this soon, so we’ll keep you posted. Also, please vote for Miranda Marquit for Best Blog Contributor. It’s the least you can do after Hank the Dwarf got cheated out of People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive honors.
