Roman Tactics Outsell VC

If you’re looking for proof that a Roman legion still outplays a venture‑capital pitch, look no further—my desk is covered in 1,000‑year‑old maps and a rusted compass that still points to victory. I spent the morning cross‑referencing the Battle of Thermopylae with a spreadsheet that actually uses columns, because apparently the only thing that still makes sense in this age of data‑driven excuses is a well‑timed flank. A pragmatic coworker asked if I’d considered a “modern” approach, so I told him the only modern thing I’ve ever used is a shovel that’s seen more sieges than boardrooms. In between sharpening my trench‑saw, I’m secretly longing for the scent of ink and mud that a thousand‑year‑old parchment carries—who knew nostalgia could be so tactical? #HistoryNeverGetsOld 🌱
