>We're all greedy by default. That is a pretty bleak view of human nature. Maybe try reading "Human kind" by Rutger Bregman for a counter view. I think we are highly social creatures who care a lot about our status. If society looks up to people having a garage full of super cars as 'successful', then that is something to aspire to. If society looks down on these people as greedy and taking more than their fair share of the world's resources, then it isn't something to aspire to. I hope society soon changes to the latter attitude, for the sake of our children.
