Following the 'Greed is good' mantra

I don't understand people. Boston.com has a story about a woman who controlled the expense accounts of a Massachusetts company and stole nearly $7 million, spending it on lavish trips and parties. Why wasn't she satisfied with that first thousand or $100,000? Why didn't she show some retraint after the first million?

Her story is outrageous, but it seems as though she isn't much different from many other people, who want more and more. Are we all greedy, self-serving beings only interested in ourselves?
