G’day Traders, I seem to recall that the reason the Roman Empire may have crumbled was because it made itself sick trying to have a luxury lifestyle. What I heard happened was that they put in lead piping so they could all have ‘fresh’ water. Of course there were other factors, but doesn’t it remind [...]
