The Fallacy of Expertise
Before you look to expert insight for help in planning, ask yourself: what is an expert?
The Wall Street Journal periodically matches the nation's leading stock analysts against a handful of darts. Over the past years, the randomly thrown darts consistently have hit better stocks on a dartboard than those chosen by the experts, after months of study and years of experience.
What is an expert? Is an expert anything more than someone with lots of data and experience? But to what end? The data on most subjects will support totally opposite conclusions- a fact which explains the popularity of the McLaughlin Group and similar televised debates.
The value of an "expert's" is dubious for another reason. Every experience in life is unique.
Anytime that we apply the apparent lessons of one experience to another one, we tend to assume that the two experiences are essentially identical.
The never are.
Don't look to experts for all your answers. There are no answers, only informed opinions.
