This is the only unsolicited advice I give

I don't think your understanding what the post is saying. If you are say, having a financial issue and you aren't sure what you should do, such as debating where you should put a sum of money you have, or whether you should take out some big loan for that business/house/etc. If you hear advice, whether you asked for it or they just saw you weren't sure and offered their advice, then you might want to look at that person and see if that advice was good or not based on how they are. They might never have had that exact same predicament, but if one guy tells you advice and his job is a financial adviser and is really well off financially and doing well for himself, and another guy tells you different advice and is still living with his parents and doesn't have two pennies to rub together, then its most likely that the first guy's advice is going to work much better for you.

Yeah, but also a person that went trough a similar situation, but handled it wrong, can advice you to do the opposite to them, so that it goes good for you, you know what Im saying?

Or if you have a love life problem and you hear advice from a guy that has had several very long term relationships and is happily married now, and you also hear advice from a guy that seems to always have one night stands and can't seem to stay in a relationship for more than a month. Which do you think you should listen to? Especially if your first instinct matches more along with what the 2nd guy was saying? Would you just take that as confirmation that you should do it then? Or would you think "hm, that advice really hasn't worked out for him, maybe I should go back and question my own thoughts about this"

That is what I'm saying! In the end, like I said, often you already know what want but need or could use more opinions
