Give-backs refer to actions or initiatives undertaken to repay a debt, return a favor, or provide some type of compensation. Antonyms for give-backs include selfishness, stinginess, greediness, and egotism. As opposed to giving back, a person who exhibits selfishness is only concerned with their own desires, needs, and wants, with little consideration for others. Stinginess is a reluctance to share, donate or give in any way, while greediness is an insatiable and excessive desire for wealth, possessions or power. Egotism, on the other hand, is a preoccupation with one's own interests, goals, and achievements, without much regard for others.
