You want to keep your own money and not be responsible for anyone you didn't sign up to being responsible for. That's selfish and that's fine.

People don't conceptualize selfishness properly imo.

I think most people conceptualize selfishness with greed.

Greed is good. I’m a capitalist jabronie.

I have never understood why it is "greed" to want to keep the money you have earned but not greed to want to take somebody else's money.

Agreed.

Nice Gordon Gecko quote. Doesn’t really support the initial sentiment of not living only for oneself, which I thought was well stated.

It does tho

Interesting. 🤔

Being a greedy capitalist is all about service to others. That’s how you get them to give you their capital.

Selfishness is not greed, but the wanting of living one's life in accordance with their existence of ability. Read 'The Fountainhead' by Ayn Rand

On my list. 🤙
