I don't think so. Great passion and greed, perhaps, but I don't think great passion is a component of greed. Greed implies no concern for others; getting what you want at any cost, and getting more than you need.
I'd would bet that anyone who was successful through giving in to greed was successful only by taking something away from someone else.
I think great passion could be a component of enlightened self-interest, and a sure path to success, but that is not greed. |
