Read the excerpt from "The I Devil and Tom Walker": "You shall lend money at two per cent a month." "Egad, I'll charge four!" re

plied Tom Walker.
"You shall extort bonds, foreclose mortgages, drive the merchants to bankruptcy-" "I'll drive them to the devil," cried Tom Walker. "You are the
usurer for my money!" said black-legs with delight. "When will you want the rhino?" "This very night." "Done!" said the devil. "Done!" said Tom Walker.
So they shook hands and struck a bargain. A few days' time saw Tom Walker seated behind his desk in a counting house in Boston. His reputation for
a ready-moneyed man, who would lend money out for a good consideration, soon spread abroad. What seems to be Tom's prime motivation in
agreeing to the Devil's terms?

Greed
