its in human nature to be greedy, look at adam and eve. we desire what we cant have but once we get it, the value decreases significantly. its just how humans function, with greed and self-fishness.

Because once we have it we no longer desire it.

Because if we could have all that we can't have, we would find out it wasn't worth having!
