    We live our dreams, and that is true for greedy people too. There is an infinity of 'dreams' we might have chosen.

    So yes, all that you mention is possible, and in the same person even. This post was edited by JakobA the unAmerican. at September 19, 2017 6:35 AM MDT

    I'm shaking my head JakobA. Not that I don't believe you. I guess humans are known for being contradictory. There is something called "logic-tight" compartments which allows for people to hold conflicting ideas simultaneously and be totally unaware of it. Does awareness change anything? Think I' ll askt THAT question!  Thank you for your reply! :)
