Yes. You name it.<\/p>\n<p>Q. <em>Can we invest in Carvalu.com\u2122?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>A. Yes.<\/p>\n<p>Q.  <em>Will you expand your service to include all cars, including used ones? <\/em><\/p>\n<p>A. Yes. The patented and patent pending used car application is especially useful since it goes way beyond market research. After all, market research indicates only what people who know very little about something pay for it.<\/p>\n<p>Q. <em>Will you accept advertisements from automobile manufacturers? <\/em><\/p>\n<p>A. No.<\/p>\n<p>Q. <em>Is <strong>SORTING BY ATTRIBUTE<\/strong> <em>proprietary  to<\/em> Carvalu.com\u2122?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>A. Yes. Others using it are doing so illegally  unless they license the method from us.<\/p>\n<p>Q. <em>What if I get a bona fide,  binding quote from a dealer for a base-equipped supermini that is much lower  than the listed price?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>A. After you unearth what comparable  superminis are monetarily worth to you, based on your Carvalu.com\u2122 WIP pie, you can easily make your own comparison to see where you save the most money. For instance, let\u2019s say you are comparing supermini \u201dA\u201d with supermini \u201cB\u201d, and \u201cA\u201d is priced at 15.000 Euros, but based on your preferences, to you, it is really only worth 14,000 Euros. In contrast, supermini \u201cB\u201d is priced at 16,000 Euros, but due to your specific value system, it is calculated by Carvalu.com\u2122 to be worth 17,000 Euros to you. If you buy \u201cA\u201d for 15,000 Euros, you actually lose1.000. If you buy \u201cB\u201d for 16,000, you are really saving 1.000 Euros.<\/p>\n<p>Q. <em>How do you justify declaring the \u201cTrue Value\u201d of something? For over 3000 years, man could not find the answer to this question!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>A. There is a psychological determination,  or judgment, behind the claim for the value unearthed by <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/carvalu.com\/?page_id=7\">Non-Subjective Valuing<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/a><\/strong> being \u201cthe\u201d value\u2026<br \/>\nOne could reasonably  ask: On what basis can Carvalu.com\u2122 claim that the value judgment of an  optimally informed society represents <em>the<\/em> true value of a supermini or  anything else?<\/p>\n<p>This is the logic.<\/p>\n<p>O<em>ptimally informed<\/em> means  knowing <em>and<\/em> understanding everything the observer desires to know and understand about a probed entity, as set forth in the book HOW TO TELL WHAT THINGS ARE <em>REALLY<\/em> WORTH. (Available at Amazon.com) Inside Carvalu.com\u2122 there is sort of a Deep Blue, the IBM computer that played world champion Kasparov in 1997 and won. A perfect expert on superminis resides in our system, which can beat any human!<\/p>\n<p>Most  people think that whether one supermini is better or worse than another  <em>can<\/em> be objectively judged.<\/p>\n<p>Where? How? and By whom? are the  questions we do not consciously think about. But we inevitably  <strong><em>feel<\/em><\/strong> that an absolute authority, somewhere, somehow, <em>does<\/em> have a universal, final, definitive answer . . . for everything!<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the very concept of a higher being seems to be destined to attempt to fulfill this apparently inherent human need for \u201cexisting certainty\u201d about things being <em>one<\/em> way. It is only that \u201cwe might not quite understand exactly what that way is, due to lack of information and\/or a lack of ability to understand such information\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>We seem to have to believe that what \u201cis\u201d, is ultimately  knowable, even if not by us and not now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Man appears to have been created with this yearning<\/strong>, <strong>proving that inherently we want absolute truth figured out by a just a yardstick.<\/strong> Ultimate uncertainty about right and wrong is surmised to be an unbearable prospect. Of course, which supermini is better, is not the most important question, but this application nevertheless demonstrates the workings of the &lt;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/carvalu.com\/?page_id=7\">Non-Subjective Valuing<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/a><\/strong> science.<\/p>\n<p>Since the lack of correct, complete and understood information appears to be the decisive cause of not knowing correct value, and since <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/carvalu.com\/?page_id=7\">Non-Subjective Valuing<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/a><\/strong> conclusively remedies this problem, it seems that, for once, the word and meaning of \u201cis\u201d, is correct as to the results of the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/carvalu.com\/?page_id=7\">Non-Subjective Valuing<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/a><\/strong> procedure. This method unearths both collective consciousness and communal conscience, virtually creating the answers to questions we collectively hope a perfect arbiter would ultimately give!<\/p>\n<p>It is proposed here that since we  <em>feel<\/em> that value is ultimately determinable, we subconsciously experience that if imparted complete and totally understood information about something, the result is the ability to determine the thing\u2019s actual worth.<br \/>\nSuperminis  are no exception.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q.
