text: One reason why seeking multiple opinions can help you make a better choice is. That some people have been through more and know more than others. Some people may have already been through the situation you're in and could give you advice that worked for them. And others have not been in the situation you're in and are just giving you advice that they think might be the best choice for your problem. And some people are just more wise than other people. Some people just know more about some things than others. Example you would not take advice for something in science from a cashier at a store than a whole room of scientist that say have the same awnser for your problem.
