I disagree. Envy, is never good. It will eat you alive from the inside out and is one of the seven deadly sins. God’s commandment says not to covet your neighbors goods. It doesn’t say don’t covet your neighbors goods unless they got them illegally or unethically then its OK.
No, envy is sometimes good. When I was a kid, I always liked those old dudes who drove those nice Benz’s. Promised myself when I become successful I would get one for myself, and I did. same thing to a crazy old neighbor who would yell at us not to play near his nice Corvette. Got that one too.
Actually, coveting your neighbor’s goods is called _jealousy_.
Envy means you don’t want the rich person to have their wealth—it is not the view that you should have it.
Jealousy is one of the seven deadly sins, and I agree, that is bad news.
