"There ain't no such thing as a free lunch" expresses the idea that even if something seems like it is free, there is always a cost, no matter how indirect or hidden.

The correct answer is: "everything has a cost, if not a explicit one at least a opportunity cost".

The opportunity cost has to be considered when making a decision. It is defined as the value of the best alternative rejected when choosing a certain option. This concept shows that every good/service, even when it is consumed at a zero price, entails a cost. For example, there is a free concert in the street, but the time spent on its consumption is a resource that could be dedicated to an alternative activity that has a value and such value is the opportunity cost.

In 1784, he entered the Academy of Military direction in Paris. After graduating, her young Napoleon received the title of lieutenant. After Napoleon Bonaparte gets the rank of lieutenant, he goes to serve in the artillery troops. A young military man with great joy meets the French Revolution in the 1784 year. He fully supports her, and become a member of the Jacobin Club.  

In spring 1788 Napoleon took part in the development of fortifications of defensive lines. In the spring of 1792, the young officer becomes a member of the Jacobin Club. For the successful operation in the 1793 year, he becomes general, takes part in the crackdown of the rebellion of Royalists in the 1795 year.  

After Napoleon goes on a military expedition to Syria and Egypt, but the military operation fails, and Napoleon returns to his homeland. This failure is not regarded as a failure of Napoleon, because by this time he is already fighting in Italy with the troops of Suvorov.
