sometimes some advice is worth consideration, though t'is wise to always be discerning in who it's coming from, why they are offering it, and what your risk tolerance is - always fully-acknowledging they could be misinformed.
you can always trust - that people will be who they are, flawed, with self-interest... at that point, it's much easier to remain neutral and objective - considering what others say, but with a higher awareness to separate the substance from the bullshit, and make one's decisions oneself...
