Greed and self-interest are different things. It’s like the difference between having a desire for your wife and having a desire to go downtown and find a prostitute.

You don’t own your wife. Greed boils down to a desire for more possessions. Most people want newer, shinier, more efficient, better things then what they currently have, even those who claim they’re not greedy.
