text: The reason why, people ask for more than one person for advice is because, they want to be able to handle the problem in the best way possible. And just asking one person, means they could give you bad advice, and you could mess something up real bad. And no one wants that to happen. Asking for two people's advice is better, but what if they both have awful advice? You should stick with at least getting three people's advice on a matter, just to be safe.
