"Name your price!" In certain situations, an individual or firm is in such desperate need of a person's services, they urge them to set the amount of compensation.

King Belshazzar of Babylon sought the interpretation of God's message mysteriously written on a wall. As a horse trainer dangles carrots in front of a prize mare, he thought he could persuade Daniel with an offer too good to refuse.
