Greed
Being motivated by greed is like being addicted to opioids
greedy people are well aware their rapacious desire for wealth
or material possessions is ultimately destructive, yet they keep
wanting more, and more, and more, and more. Aggressively
coveting especially money and power; by whatever means
necessary. They're enslaved by it. They crave it so intensely
They're unable to go into remission. Anyone who believes that
"Greed is good" has drank The Gordon Gekko Kool-Aid. Its quite
The opposite; a slow-acting poison that tastes like honey
Don't be a Gekko
Greed, akin to addiction
It is bad, not good
