Most sellers think the biggest danger is signing the wrong contract. Sometimes the bigger danger is trusting the wrong person to explain it.
In Alon’s case, the same manager who connected him to the wholesaler also helped explain the deal. She should have recognized that the deadline had already passed, but she still pushed him forward.
