The more I think about it, the crazier it is.
With little to ZERO knowledge or research would you rather:
a) Attempt to repair the engine of your own car.
b) Take apart your laptop to fix an issue where the screen doesn't come on.
c) Do your own dental work.
d) Invest $720,000 and hope it lasts you the rest of your life.
Why in the name of fuck would people never think to do a), b), or c) but think d) is okay? I mean, with the first two all you can do is maybe a few hundred to tens of thousands in damage, but the last is way more crucial and a three-quarters of a million decision for God sakes. Many won't even bother to buy a book on the subject. If anyone can explain this phenomenon to me, I'd really like to understand what's happening in the human brain.
