"Let's say you had enough money to buy a set of clothes or 8 bottles wine in 16 AD, but instead you invested that money in gold.

Today 2,000 years later your investment would have grown enough to buy a set ot clothes or 8 bottles of wine.

To me, that's an example of a very bad investment."

If you bought Gold 2000 years ago and held it for the entire period with out buying and selling the cycle peaks and valleys. I would rather say it as your a very poor, uninformed and uneducated investor.

It would be like walking in a circle while expecting to go somewhere. True ?

That's so blue sky and divorced from reality that it's totally invalid. Who has lived over 2000 years?
