Somehow, when the stakes rises, and opportunity'scome, we all seem to think we are invincible. How can this be is a question that is haunting me for quite a while now. What is is that we do, have or create that we become some kind of wild beasts as soon as we smell a profit? I've seen very solid poker players go crazy on a hand cause the "odds" where in their favour. Somehow, we seem to confuse positive odds and a definate win. Is this in our human nature?

There is even a website especially for greedy people. It's really amazing to me.

So is there anybody out there who can tell me, why are we all so greedy?
Where did you find this?
