->''"There is a very fine line between loving life and being greedy for it."''
-->-- '''Creator/MayaAngelou'''

[[SelfDemonstratingArticle The only person I care about is me!]] My wants and needs matter more than yours and everyone else! I want everything to myself and I won't share it with others! This is one of the reasons why HumansAreBastards, but whatever. Here is MY index dealing with selfish and greedy characters.

Compare with EgoTropes, EntitledToThisIndex, ObsessionTropes, PridefulTropes, and TheJerkIndex, five of my defining traits. MoneyTropes are high on my list of favorite priorities. Contrast with those sharing twinks at SelflessnessTropes.
