I think the main point of that scene, as Gaz mentioned, was to highlight how egomanical he has become, and again, how much of his identity is tied up with that money in his head.

Although I disagree that he isn't as greedy as portrayed. Actually, I'm not sure. I can't tell whether Season 5 has been more about greed or ego. Things get pretty grey at this intensity level.
