According to dictionary.com, there are many types of greed, not just for wealth or possessions; such as greediness for knowledge, fame, praise. Do you have any personal stories about this human weakness? What would you think about a friend who offered you a piece of chocolate but kept much more than half for himself? Have you ever been greedy? What kind of effects or results, either negative or positive, have you seen which came straight from greed?

I was greedy for a while when I harboured the insane idea of climbing K2,at 28,628ft straight up, one of the most dangerous mountains on earth, climbers are selfish at the best of times and I was no different.
