Basically, "people are selfish and will do what benefits them"

“Will do what they believe benefits them”

There's nothing selfish about wanting a home and a viable retirement plan. Everyone should have those things.

The way I see it, being selfish isn't inherently bad -- there's nothing wrong with looking out for number 1, provided it's not at the expense of others. There's a difference between being selfish and being greedy, of course. The latter is a pretty bad character trait, IMO.
