A.k.a. "closet coveters" --- i.e., people with a stronger-than-normal tendency towards grabbiness, but who usually do not openly admit it.
I hitch-hiked downtown to scavenge the waste-paper bins at the post office, looking to see if anyone had discarded any Nielsen TV Ratings Survey envelopes with two $1 bills hidden inside... yep, got to admit it --- guess I've finally joined "The Greed Breed", LOL!! Well, maybe I'm not really being greedy per se --- I mean, I just would hate to see perfectly good cash get discarded, merely because many of the junk-mail envelopes' other recipients didn't even know dat da cash was in there. Who WOULDN'T wanna pick up an easy two bucks just like that???
