How did people invest in ancient Greece

Roman gold ingot, dating to 375 AD, in Bank of England Museum

Whether it was land, goods, or works of art, the Greeks and Romans, like today, sought to secure and grow their wealth despite economic and political risks."All I want is an income of 20,000 sesterces from safe investments," proclaims a character in a poem by Juvenal (1st-2nd century AD), the Roman poet. Today, 20,000 sesterces would be equivalent to approximately €170,000 in investment interest. Anyone would be very happy to have such a passive annual income.
