I think this affects everyone.
Greed is when you have something, but it is not enough, so you want more.
Greed hinders us from taking advantage of the blessings we already have.
Greed stops us from achieving further goals as we selfishly aim for a higher end that is presently unrealistic.
The driver of greed is selfishness. You want it and want it all for yourself.
The solution is to ‘checkout’ when you achieve your initial goals, regardless of potential prospects.
If the potential prospect becomes unrealistic, you lose everything, but if it is realistic, you still have achieved your goals.
