This kind of caught my attention today as I heard a person expressing how he wanted his computer to load up faster and was willing to spend about $500 to do this. His initial thoughts was that he would need a new processor and those things can get expensive if you are trying to buy a newer model. I was thinking in this situation though it sounded like all he needed was like one of those SSD drives which could cost less than $100. Even I use one and it makes the computer load so much faster.<\/p>\n
There are other examples I can think of such as a person complaining how the picture quality on the TV shows they are watching seem so bad. Even though their TV is not that old, they assume they need to spend a large amount of money to get a new TV to solve this when in many cases this situation is due to people watching standard definition channels on a large screen. Even if I think I know a little about something, if it requires me to make a substantial purchase like these I tend to ask people who know a lot more about the topic.<\/p>\n
In some ways you can think of it like the flu where people are willing to spend hundreds of dollars on items to try and get rid of it whereas a lot of experts would just say things like lots of rest and fluids. Don’t let your lack of knowledge on a topic be the reason you have no money left at the end of the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
