Greed has negative consequences under a fiat system, but the incentive is actually quite good in bitcoin, since your hoard of cash decreed or increases in value, respectively.
Bitcoin does (or will) heal a lot of the other motives of greed, though, since you can't print it and thus can't fractionally lend it, but I won't say it solves avarice, since that's a human heart issue.
