Jermaine: I think it's true that the more options I have, the happier I am.
George: So you would rather eat at a buffet restaurant than one with a fixed menu?
Jermaine: Yes
George: And if you were buying a car you would like to test drive as many cars as you could find?
Jermaine: Well, as many in my price range.
George: So what really makes you happy is the most relevant options rather than the most options?
Jermaine: Yeah.
George: What about when the decision is about what to wear? Would you rather have a dozen shirts or just a couple?
Jermaine: The more the better, obviously.
George: So every morning you get up and you spend like 20 minutes trying on shirts?
Jermaine: Well, once I've decided on which jeans, then I look at the shirts that go with them. So, again, relevant options.
George: So how do you define relevant?
Jermaine: Depending on the situation, relevant means any option I think I think I can have. Like, I wouldn't test drive a Bentley because I can't afford one yet, or ponder an orange shirt with blue jeans because that would look crap. So I guess it's not true that the more options I have the happier I am so much as the more relevant options the happier. I don't want to get overwhelmed by choices so I use the idea of relevance to exclude some options.
