text: My final reason why seeking multiple opinions is better, is that some people are more knowledgeable than others. An example of this would be buying a car. When you buy a car, you want to get the best car that's available within your budget. If you talk to a car salesman he/she will know more about what kind of car that you are able to get, versus asking your 12-year old brother which car you should buy. Another example of this would be to buy a house. If your have a budget for a house, you would like to find the best house that you can afford. A real estate agent can help you find and pick a house that is affordable, opposed to talking to a fisherman about what houses are availiable in the area. These two examples show that you can make better choices when you talk to with people who are more knowledgeable in that area.
