av·a·rice
noun
- 1.extreme greed for wealth or material gain.Came across this word in a Bill Waterson comic (no title)."In a culture that relentlessly promotes avarice and excess as the good life... a person happy doing his own work is usually considered an eccentric, if not subversive."My sentence: Kids these days grow up watching young celebrity stars act with no care about humanity and want a similar lifestyle filled with avarice.
