text: My second reason why seeking multiple opinions is helpful is that some people might have been in the same shoes as you and wanted the same type of advice. These people may also give good advice because they asked for the same type of advice. They could tell you what is true and what is not and could tell you their opinion from the experience he or she went through after their decision. This can also narrow down your decision quickly from knowing the person's experience. People who asked for the same type of advice and opinions can give you good advice from how their own experience.
