Anyway, that post actually led me to this wikipedia page, where Crassus is listed as the eighth wealthiest man of all time.

I am in no position to vouch for the accuracy of these findings, but the list is fascinating in its' own right.
Augustus isn't on the list? :yeahright:

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Neither is Caesar, or Pompeius Magnus as far as I can see, so I haven't got a clue how they justify their criteria.

Ah, I'm a wetback now.

I'll add that to the list of stuff I supposedly am.
