Needle-camel

Someone who cares too much about money, wealth and possessions, to the point where it is unhealthy or greedy. Originates from the famous biblical idiom “Eye of a needle,“ in which Jesus says that its easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than a rich person to be saved

All those millionaires and their fancy cars and mansions, they’re all a bunch of needle-camels!
