1. Compile lists: Make a list of all the cons and pros related to both the options covering all bases.
2. Associate monetary value: Associate monetary values to both the options. For example what would be the benefit or lag if either of the options happen or don't happen.
3. Set up the equation and compare: Compare the results of the above two steps and see which option has an overall high benefit rate.

This will allow the consumer to analyse both his options and chose the best one.
