Necessity never made a good bargain

(0 Reviews)

The quote "Necessity never made a good bargain" from Walter Isaacson's biography of Benjamin Franklin emphasizes how urgent needs often lead people to unfavorable agreements. When people are driven by desperation, they may compromise their position and settle for less than they deserve. Franklin's wisdom reflects a broader truth about negotiations where having options and time typically enhances one's bargaining power, contrasting the vulnerabilities that come with urgent necessity.
