Because nothing in nature is stable, one cannot merely keep what one has. Just like all other living creatures, we either thrive or fade. This is the fundamental law governing the entire realm of life. And it is out of an instinct of survival that all men desire Smith, Spencer, etc. Gospel of Wealth, American Individualism, The Way to Wealth, The Individual and His Will, etc. Philosophical Testament. Etc.
Wow. Fucking loser of a legacy, eh?
