Until they rip your still-beating heart out in front of thousands of cheering onlookers!

I'd only go back to 1955 to 1965. There was plenty of work, rich and less well off could enjoy life and it was possible for a young couple to buy a house and expect to keep it.

Alexandria before the Christians took control would also have been good.

The Hellenistic era was always fascinating. Unfortunately, modern scholars don't give proper attention to that amazing time, and places like Alexandria, Rhodes, etc.

Hmm it would have been neat to live in the time that Ivan the Terrible was Tsar of All Russia. I would have loved to have been his physiatrist.
