There is nothing wrong with wanting to keep what you have earned.

There is a big difference between letting someone starve to death right next to you when you have food to spare and people starving thousands of miles away that you will never meet [I know that people can argue that the end result is the same]. I know it's fucked up, but it's reality. Unless you can experience it and be around it, it doesn't affect you as much. That's just part of the human condition. If problems where in our face 24/7, they would get solved. But we keep them out of sight and out of mind.
