In that case gluttony and jealousy are good too.

If you squeeze your brain a little you can find positive arguments in everything bad, but that doesn't mean you should...

And btw Ropa, when are you gonna post something helpful for the community other than lounge threads?

No pun intended

^ None of those are greedy, just smart. The article writer/video creator were just using the tagline 'Greed Is Good' to generate traffic, which is the greediest thing about the article.
