True. This is because there is so much demand on our time. If given the opportunity to read a few books a year (which is above average), who and what would you choose? A popular author you've enjoyed in the past or someone you don't know and may not enjoy? Would you prefer an FDIC-insured bank or one that isnt regulated?
