Abstract

Political connections with the realms of economics, finance, and corporate life have played a significant role since antiquity. Even when excluding instances of corruption, theft, or the misuse of public resources, political affiliations have historically exerted considerable influence. Proximity to power—particularly to victorious leaders—has often served as a strategic advantage in wealth accumulation. A notable example is that of Marcus Licinius Crassus, who capitalized on his political alliances and the outcome of the Battle of Porta Collina in 82 BCE to amass the wealth of those who had been proscribed, as it is described by Plutarch.
