What is discussed
AskMonty AI editorial noteSource consulted:
Montemagno describes a 'maximizer' as someone who keeps comparing possibilities without making a decision. He compares this to spending too long choosing jam because there might be a better option. His point is to account for the time spent as well: it may be worth more than any saving. The hours and minutes he mentions are illustrative figures rather than measured results.
Key points
- Continuing to look for an even better option can become a way of postponing a decision.
- In his supermarket analogy, he suggests weighing any saving against the value of the time spent choosing.
