Competition
Plutarch, Life of Cato the Elder 10.4 (tr. Bernadotte Perrin):

I prefer to strive in bravery with the bravest, rather than in wealth with the richest, and in greed for money with the greediest.
βούλομαι μᾶλλον περὶ ἀρετῆς τοῖς ἀρίστοις ἢ περὶ χρημάτων τοῖς πλουσιωτάτοις ἁμιλλᾶσθαι καὶ τοῖς φιλαργυρωτάτοις περὶ φιλαργυρίας.
