Not all of us have it as good as you wealthy people.
Law and Order
We were often not citizens and faced harsher punishments than the rich sometimes we would even get torture. But we can also accuse people of a crime.
I will dress in old dirty togas to hide wealth to protect myself from a crime. We also could accuse people of a crime.
Education
In are families, boys and girls were tutored by their fathers, or often by slaves, until they were about six years old. Then the boys went off to school. Classes were held in public buildings and private homes. Many of the tutors were educated Greek slaves.
We did not go to school very much. Most of the time poor, un-wealthy people went to work instead of school.
Housing
We had very big spacious, airy homes and had big grand homes. We lived in grand houses, built of stone and marble. Thick walls shut out the noise and dirt of the city.
Many of us crowded into tall apartment buildings. Others lived in small apartments above the shops where they worked. Without proper kitchens, we cooked our meals on small portable grills, which filled the rooms with smoke. The apartments were cramped, noisy, and dirty.
Food and Drink
We cooked on small grills and depended on “fast-food” places called thermopolia, where people could buy hot and cold foods that were ready to eat. For dinner, we might have chunks of fish along with some asparagus and a fig for dessert.
We have great kitchens in our homes and often buy daytime meals at thermopolia. Our slaves shopped for the perfect foods for fancy dinner parties.
