Alexander’s move was a stroke of genius. He wanted to amass a great army but did not have the funds in the royal treasure to pay for it. Instead of squeezing the nobles for more funds, he gave everything away. This signaled a willingness to share the wealth so that the nobles financed the army so that they could amass more with the booty of victory. Perdiccas and a few others refused their shares and committed themselves to Alexander’s “hopes.” See {612208} for Alexander’s mother’s view of his generosity later.
