A familiar story

Most of us have experienced it.

You decide to buy a new phone. Before long, you're comparing camera quality, battery life, processor speed and colors. You watch review videos, read customer comments, compare prices across websites and ask friends for recommendations. Hours disappear. Sometimes even days. And when you finally make the purchase, you're convinced you've made the perfect choice.

Yet many of the decisions that shape our lives receive far less attention. Our health. Our careers. Our relationships. And our financial future.
