Alright, i guess I'll take a few steps back here with you to try and understand where you're coming from.

Greed, love, fear, etc, are emotions innate to every human and animals even. You can call them whatever you want, the underlying emotion or feeling still remains. Are you trying to say that we only know what fear is because we've constructed a way to describe it? That without language or "constructs" we wouldn't have fear? Like we wouldn't be afraid of things? Or just that we'd call it something else? Fear existed before investment banking. Anger exists without beach houses.

"Someone with a heavy ego would just aspire to lead their tribe and probably be way nicer in doing it."

I'd be curious to see how you came to that conclusion. Because it seems to me that ego maniacs would murder, cheat, steal, sabotage, lie, you get the idea. They want to rape your wife and daughters and kill you and your sons. Look at the vikings, the colonization of the world. Do you think these horrible things would not exist if we didn't have money? Do you think they did not exist before we invented money and investment banks and beach houses?
