Please try to be charitable, not adversarial, toward the counterparties in a discussion on HN. I will try to do the same.

I was characterizing what the parent appeared to be saying, so that I could discuss it (that greed is a part of human nature). I was not justifying greed.

I rent an apartment and I don't own a car.

Just a joke, phrasing it referring to "you" wasn't meant to be personal.
