Bill Gates can rarely make an actual decision if he wants to buy something, because there are way too many options, he can buy whatever he wants. I think that making a decision involves a certain level of knowledge of what one is getting oneself into. When Bill Gates wants to take his wife out to dinner, he can take her to any restaurant in the world within a few hours on his private jet. Russia, China, LA, NY, Milan, Paris, Romania, etc.. He can't really decide on what he wants given that many options. He probably asks his wife what she wants, if its Chinese, he gets online, looks at the most expensive Chinese place in town and goes. Sure he chose something but he probably didn't really deliberate in order to make a decision for it is likely that he knew very little on the subject. So there is a possible distinction between choose and decide.shalomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10959865638081736106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16662426.post-26076563142729519082009-09-24T17:33:05.551-04:002009-09-24T17:33:05.551-04:00I was doing a search on the difference between cho...I was doing a search on the difference between choose and decide and found your blog entry.
