text: To start off, a benefit of seeking advice from multiple people was shown by Psychologist Generic_Name, at the University of Thomas Ridge who stated that: "It has been shown that seeking advice and opinions from multiple people has often resulted that they too have had a similar situation, and are able to personally tell you how it had ended up, and what response they took that had either resulted in negative or positive consequences." Basically, what this means is that seeking advice for more than one person can benefit you into finding a person who had been in a similar, if not the exact same, situation that you are in, and can give you efficient, accurate, first hand examples, or solutions to avoid the negative consequences all together.
