When estimating project budgets, it is more accurate to ask how much a project went over budget rather than its total cost. By gathering over budget percentages from friends and family who have done similar projects, averaging them, and applying this average percentage to your own project estimates, you can create a more reliable projection. This method helps in accounting for unknown factors and biases in initial optimistic estimates, resulting in a more realistic and unbiased budget estimate.
