You could place curse on him like the one that was on Kelmevor's family from FR novels.  The old cleric needs the party to do the good deed but your player wont because he needs compensation.  Cursed: cannot accept payment for work.2. You could also give him all that he desires.  Allow him to sell everything and split the treasure.  It provides a story line that the party has to request for the item.3. I'm sure at some point his greed as effected other outside of the party.  Maybe he is the target of good aligned npcs going after him.  What's his alignment anyway?  It sounds like he might be playing NE.  IF so spells would affect him.On the whole D&D and role-playing games are very social.  If after identifying that this player has destructive tendencies that make things difficult for themselves and those around them maybe he should take a break from the group and deal with his problem.Or since he's your friend and you don't want to stop playing at any cost tell him to stop.  Say something to the effect "Look we talked already, if you know that you’re acting like a jerk then stop.  I'm your friend and I'm here for you, but if your problem is getting in the way of your fun and others YOU NEED to get a handle on it."  Maybe after him deliberately not trying to sell stuff and divided everything up he might get over his anxiety.Here is another idea.  Do you think that you or the group might be the problem?  You said that one character gave items that the party couldn't use to his new cohort.  That's benefiting that one character.  Do the characters have treasure of their appropriate lvl? I was involved in a campaign where we were all about 8-10th lvl and had very little magic items.  We were playing a high fantasy setting and having problems because of our lack of resources.  It made us all very focused on material wealth.  Is the campaign very focus of self sacrificing heroics where you have paladins and holy crusaders in the group with one mercenary?  Is your player stuck playing a character that he really wanted to play but you have changed the campaign on him to something that it originally wasn't?</blockquote>
