Caesar also adopted Octavian and made him his heir. Mark Antony seized Caesar's money which was held at the temple of Ops. Octavian planned to accept his inheritance. Antony disapproved of this. When Octavian demanded his inheritance Marc Antony, who was the consul (head of the Republic), refused to give it to him, saying that it was public money and that it had been spent in the interests of the Roman state. He also had not disbursed Caesar's promised bequeath to the people Therefore, Octavian paid this bequest out of his own money by selling his estate and borrowing money from friend to humiliate Marc Antony and increase his own popularity.

How does mark Antony use reverse psychology in his funeral speech?
Nothing. At his funeral Antony was dead, therefore he could not speak.

They all say that Antony inflamed the crowd with his words, which caused the riot and fire and ciaos. Shakespeare gives fictionalize version of Antony's speech in the play Julius Caesar.
