“Necessity never made a good bargain”

Simplified Meaning:
When you are in desperate need of something, you often end up making a bad deal or paying too much for it. Think about the times when you really needed a ride home and had to pay extra for a taxi because there were no other options. When you feel like you have no choice, you might agree to unfair terms or conditions because you can't afford to wait or look for better solutions. This happens because your urgent need makes you less patient and more willing to accept a bad offer just to solve your problem quickly. To avoid this, try to plan ahead and avoid waiting until the last minute so you can make more thoughtful and less pressured decisions. This way, you are more likely to find a fair and satisfactory deal.
