“The Dutch,it seems,more than anyone in the West since the palmy days of ancient Rome,had more money than they knew what to do with.They discovered,unlike the Romans,that the best use of money was to make more money.They invested it,mostly in overseas ventures,utilizing the innovation of the joint-stock company in which private investors could purchase shares,the most famous being the Dutch East India Company”(Kuzminski,2013,p.38).
