Crassus, Claudius
18. P. Licinius Crassus Dives, son of No. 15, and known by the designation of Decoctor; for, though originally very rich, his prodigality and dissipation were so inordinate, that he became insolvent, and his creditors sold his goods. After this, he was often taunted by being addressed as Crassus Dives. (V. Max. 6.9.12 )
