Answer 1

"Lazy initialization occurs the first time the Lazy.Value property is accessed or the Lazy.ToString method is called.

Use an instance of Lazy to defer the creation of a large or resource-intensive object or the execution of a resource-intensive task, particularly when such creation or execution might not occur during the lifetime of the program."
