So what is greed, contrasted with the ironical 'greed'?

For me, it is being unable to stop acquiring the necessities for a comfortable and productive life, seeing the process as an end in itself. It is also correlated with a need to have power over others. I put it to you that this is not exactly uncommon. Is this a definition of greed that you would be comfortable with? If not, what's yours?
