How to keep you away from always wanting more. It should have been enough.
e.g.
I want 10 when I have 5. Long time ago 5 would be more than enough. I always keep forgeting how it feels when I only have 2.

I have dealt with challenge as well. Usually it happens when I'm bored, or restless.
Try getting a hobby, preferable one that isn't competative or expensive. Vegetable gardening has helped me. It has given me a sense of accomplishment outside of money.
Also try channeling your greed into something good, like fundraising for a non-profit, that way you get the satifaction of making more money, but not the greedy aspect since it's going to a good cause.

never forget what it feels like because we could always be back where we have 2 greed is bad it takes away the good in us. if you see someone in need or hungry give them something it will be a good thing for you to do. after all any of us could be in that position at any given time

Giving - Giving - Giving -
finding other people to give to - it will be the best way
also - go to another country for a few weeks and find out what really matters.
also if someone close to you dies - it has this way of gettingyour attention and you'll be aware that all this stuff doesn't matter.

i think the best way to fight greed is to be more giving.. try exposing yourself to the plight of other people around you who are suffering.. those who have less and are still content and happy with their lives.. also try taking a look at those who you think "have it all".. are they really happy? are they really content? for example, look at what's been happening in hollywood.. britney spears, lindsay lohan.. their young, beautiful and yet, they are lost.. try putting yourself in somebody else's shoes, and see how you feel after..

go back to having only 2 for a while, as you get acclimated to having more, more seems like normal, and sometimes not enough....occasionaly budgeting yourself, may keep things in perspective...
