Fitzgerald uses wealth and social status to define Gatsby’s character, which is exemplified by his lavish parties and the dignitaries who attend them. In his formative years, Gatsby was employed by a wealthy yachtsman, Dan Cody. It is from Cody that Gatsby develops his appreciation for wealth. “To young Gatz, resting on his oars, looking up at the railed deck, that yacht represented all the beauty and glamour in the world� (Fitzgerald 106). Fitzgerald uses this quote to mark the point at which Gatsby encounters wealth and power for the first time, and also, he uses it to symbolize Gatsby’s social standing and economic status.
The financial structure of this proposal is very favorable to the public more so than Jerry Jones as the ratio of public vs. private is 31% to 69%. From this financial structure we can see that the majority of the equity will come from the private side as the public has voiced a lot of opposition for putting up large amounts of money to build a stadium. The small amount asked for by the team should be justifiable to the public as the direct local taxes only increase by 1%. This leaves Jerry Jones with a large amount of money to cover his stadium. To help alleviate the burden Jerry can sell the naming rights to his new stadium.
Most of the ex-samurai families were initially in a great position to wield power in the new government, since they tended to be the land owners. There were some exceptions however, since in the new economy profit meant power, the merchant class did see a rise in influence in the new political system. Unfortunately this new power applied only to the very wealthy merchants who could make vast profits trading with other countries.

If attendance is low, a general manager might decide to bring in a player who is well known. This player usually is labeled by the term, “fan favorite.” Raising attendance means more money in the team’s pocket. Which means more money can be spent on players.
The roaring twenties was the beginning to a decade of a whole new caliber. The dawn of the American Dream; the idea of a wealthy, comfortable, luxurious lifestyle. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel “The Great Gatsby” best shows how people strive for the American Dream and the means by which they attain it. Both Tom Buchanan and Jay Gatsby are able to live a luxurious lifestyle. However Tom is able to enjoy spending money left and right knowing the he acquired it through inheritance while Jay struggles to acquire his wealth by any means possible.
In this quote, the color of Gatsby’s tie is gold, which shows that his suit is very expensive. With all of his extravagant and marvelous parties, Gatsby was able to show off how rich he is by doing things out of the norm. Gold also represents the luxurious life Gatsby lives. Because of his power and wealth, Gatsby is able to afford anything he desires: “…spiced baked hams crowded against salads of harlequin designs and pastry pigs and turkeys bewitched to a dark gold.” (40).This illustrates that even the food provided at his parties is considered expensive and the best of the best. This color is also in association with Tom: “The front was broken by a line of French windows, glowing now with reflected gold and wide open to the warm windy afternoon, and Tom Buchanan in riding clothes was standing with his legs apart on the front porch.” (6).This also shows a different type of wealth that Tom and Daisy have because of their “old money”, who someone like Gatsby does not have.
