Not easy to define “greed” since it has such a pejorative connotation…
However, Merriam-Webster defines greed as
"having or showing a selfish desire for wealth and possessions…" it does say “selfish” but, if we get down to it, isn’t almost everything we do selfish…???
And, the James' article… I think well illustrates that if one is motivated by greed the effort with be greater and the end product much superior…
I know that for religious people the word “greed” is hard to swallow… but, I also believe that it high time to give that word the “lettres de noblesse” that it so richly deserves...
