text: One reason people ask multiple people for advice is because people can learn from others experiences. People can learn from their mistakes and can share information about what to do and what not to do to others going through a similar situation. For example, my mom is one of the first people I ask if I need advice on anything. She is much older than me so I assume she has already experienced most of the things I go through. A few months ago, I needed advice on a school project so I went to her for help. She told me about similar projects she did at my age and was able to give me some advice on what to say and how to present the project. Since she had already experienced a project similar to the one I had due, she was able to give me solid, good advice on it. Another reason to ask multiple people for advice on something is because there is more information to use.
