What would be the best time in history to be a rich /biz/nessman? Do today's billionaires have it better than anyone in history?

Pretty much. We know that Billionaires are on hormones and specially crafted diets to reduce the effects of aging on their bodies, and that's just the shit we know about.

Look at the way Tom Cruise is aging compared to his contemporaries like Val Kilmer. Kilmer might be rich, but he's not ULTRA rich.

When you're a Billionaire you can afford to never interact with the internet again. Your life is carried out entirely within the confines of a bubble that you construct yourself, with other billionaires.

Depends on how rich becuase theres more wealth and tech advancement now than ever.
In classical times you could lord it like an actual king, have near absolite freedom to set policy, own armies etc and people will think its just normal. Today if you tried that stuff youd only get away with it in secret

Then why did they do it? You get to pillage and rape, and get land, etc. Pretty nice....plus young men are programmed to want to fight. If you never felt the urge then you're low T.
