ABSTRACT: The major research objective is to study of ratio of envy with acceptability of methods (tools) for achieving high economic status and riskiness of personal. This research was carried out with 164 respondents (39% of them were men). The results show higher allow ability of using illegal methods for achieving economic prosperity, i.e. tax evasion, delinquency in paying child support or transportation fares. The behavioral realm is dominated by risk, but attitudes of personality more often exclude risky activity in the material sphere. Correlation studies confirm the hypothesis about the selective risky activity of an envious personality.
