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 Date written and posted: 04/26/2019
