Hi,
Imbalance in any chakra is not automatically attributable to some sort of trauma in this life. People develop sexually in different ways and not always in balance even though they have not been molested or somesuch. We cannot blame others for (all) our imbalances. Our Karma and the choices we make affect the development of all the chakras.
The Muladhara has to do wih supportive foundation for all the other chakras and is home to our Kundalini energy. If we learn or perceive that money is the most important 'foundation' for our well-being then one may become 'obsessed' with money just as one may become 'obsessed' with love or sex if these are perceived as overly vital.
Habitual attachements (and aversions) are what develop from perceptions of the world (and our illusions about it). Habitual ways of behaving and coping arise from these attachments and aversins and contribute mightily to the Karma we manifest from lifetime to lifetime.
So, anything one becomes 'greedy for' can be attributeable to Muladhara chakra difficulties.
But, the Muladhara also has the balancing attributes of patience, the most basic probably being the human maturation process where sexual reproduction (procreation) must be 'patient' until the organism is sexually mature enough (which is not the same as psychologically and emotionally mature enough) to sire, bear, and parent offspring. Procreation, of course, being a prime attribute of the Swadhisthana chakra. So, I would say there is something to be learned about 'patience' from the rather lengthy maturation process that has evolved in humans.
