^ An excessive desire to acquire or possess more than what one needs or deserves, especially with respect to material wealth.

If the other commenter’s point is that “struggling with generosity” is just another way to say “greed”, then I think that’s overly reductionist
I give you kudos for going American Heritage. It’s the best American English Dictionary. Way better than Webster.
