True, if you managed to find a bank that lasted that long, or a currency that lasted that long. Look at the history of both banks and currencies and you’ll see that the miracle compound interest is not easy to uphold.
Those are, indeed, issues, but they could be addressed with careful management. See my reply to a sibling comment, but basically, investing a couple of hours of wages back then, and carefully moving it from investment to investment over the millenia would do the trick.
