Summary
This quote suggests that people tend to prioritize honesty only when there are personal gains involved, particularly financial ones. It implies that individuals may choose to be forthcoming and truthful in situations where honesty could benefit them monetarily. However, it implies a tendency for human nature to be opportunistic and suggests that honesty might not always take precedence over personal interests or financial incentives.
