Actual Greed tends to be endemic, along with Bloodlust, Intolerance, and/or Callous.
I had trouble with one AD&D character in a group, because I wasn't interested in money except to attain a very specific goal. As a part water elemental, I wanted to get rich enough to buy a safe empty quarry to fill with water creating a mini-kingdom lake for all watery hybrids to live in peace.
The DM being a bit Monty Haul just rewarded everyone with so much money that my character had to leave. He was confused. I'm not extreme in roleplaying, but that was my character's entire motivation for adventuring.
