Despise the Free Lunch

Law 40 of the 48 Laws of Power

“What is offered for free is dangerous – it usually involves either a trick or a hidden obligation. What has worth is worth paying for.  By paying your own way you stay clear of gratitude, guilt, and deceit. It is often wise to pay the full price – there’s no cutting corners with excellence. Be lavish with your money and keep it circulating, for generosity is a sign and a magnet for power.”
