Weekly Round Up: Great Nexus

Photo Credit: Great Nexus

Pinyo over at Moolanomy has a new and very helpful site over at the Great Nexus. If you’re looking to get a nice snapshot of what going on with sports, health, tech, and of course, personal finance; this is a fantastic site. If you happen to be on the personal finance section, you can find forums, sites, videos and blogs about organzing and optimizing your finances. I also wanted to point out that you’ll also find Green Panda Treehouse on the site as well!

We have been enjoying the beautiful weather outside and went to the park right down the road to walk the trail, chat with friends, and relax. It’s supposed to be warm all this week, so I’m using my sunscreen and bringing water with me. 

Have a great wekend!
