The good and bad side of greed is that
somewhere, somehow greed does make
the world go around.

Similiarly some people agree that
"money really does make the world go round."
It is about wanting more and never being
satisfied with either money, pleasure or property.

What are your thoughts on the above? :)

This SO reminds me of a GP question, or it really is??? LOL
 

greed comes in many forms - love, money, for the good.

i dont think there is anything wrong with being greedy.
 

It's natural for everyone to want better, for themselves, for people around them....
 

I always thought being natural is being naked LOL
 

Naked??? I heard naked........ who?:bsmilie:

I am always full of greed to collect bodies.........
 

Sounds familiar. Bargain for discount. Greed for knowledge and skill. A photographer pursue for better pictures is a form of greed.
Money is power indeed, no money cannot do. Anyone who tells you money is not important is a hypocrite.

But I dislike the follow type of greed. Greed with innocent, greed at the expense or sacrifice others. Greed for more greed. Thinking greedy is right. Greedy with intent to harm and cheat others. Greedy with shameful action. :(
 

greed make us improve in aspects. to own one dslr, or many many dslr? to have one len or have many many lens? same thing ;)
 

Greedy for knowledge is good right?
 

GREED: one of the seven DEADLY sins.

Somehow, most photographers have been through
this kind of madness, myself included.
Any formula for healing? :bsmilie:
 

People pursue knowledge for themselves,
what when they do not want to share it? :bsmilie:

Not sharing has nothing to do with being greedy, it's being selfish...
 

People say that most selfish people are always greedy.

:dunno:

Right, but a greedy person doesn't make him/her a selfish person :)

Rare to find such people.
Very rare indeed that you can meet someone who
is greedy and yet very very generous with all that
he or she has. ;)
