Borrow is rather straightforward: you get an extra coin to spend this turn, but you'll draw one card less next turn. On average, a card is worth more than a coin, so it's definitely not a deal you should make every turn. However, if you absolutely need a certain key card early on, Borrow can be very useful. For example, it can mitigate the negative effects of opening {{cost|4}}/{{cost|3}} on a board with {{Card|Mountebank}} or {{cost|5}} cost Trashers such as {{Card|Junk Dealer}} and {{Card|Count}}. It can also help you to hit {{cost|3}}{{Cost||||P}} for {{Card|Familiar}} on the second shuffle. Late-game, especially in [[Big Money]] games, hitting {{cost|7}} is not as big of a disadvantage anymore, since you can just Borrow to hit {{Card|Province}}.

=== Donald X.'s opinion ===
 
{{Quote|Text=
 
I usually Borrow turn 1 or 2. I never feel bad about that, but sometimes feel like I Borrowed too much later. Obv. you do it late-game any time it does you any good.
 
 
In games with {{Card|Militia}}s, it's tempting to constantly Borrow. Take that, {{Card|Minion}}. But it's a combo with {{Card|Minion}} too, so it evens out.
