Jay Gatsby CHAPTER 3 1. I discovered that Nick Carraway finally saw Jay Gatsby at his party. Also, Gatsby looks so manly that he looked like other people who came to the party. Nick Carraway did not even recognize who is Jay Gatsby when he talked to a man; he found out that that man is Gatsby who is the host of the party. Also, Nick Carraway found out that Mrs. Baker knew Gatsby pretty well, and Nick tried to ask more information about Gatsby from Mrs. Baker.
After not receiving the job at Lehman Brothers, Michael was invited to a dinner from a cousin in London with the queen. Michael Lewis was given the job at Solomon Brothers by a mere coincidence. After having a dinner with two wives of senior managing directors at Solomon Brothers, he landed and interview and learned that in order to get the job you must take the job from the company. The first year for new hires at Solomon Brothers consisted of training. The trainees were people like him who were just out of college.
When Nick was out west, he only sees Gatsby as wealth, until he moves to New York and meets Gatsby at one of his parties. After he becomes better friends with Gatsby, he disregards the lies that Gatsby tells, and sees him for his whole person. When he firsts sees Gatsby he states, “Something in his leisurely movements and the secure position of his feet upon the lawn suggested that it was Mr. Gatsby himself, come out to determine what share was his of our local heavens” (Fitzgerald, ch. 1). As in an article by Abbey Leitten states “Referring to their land as ‘local
Arnold is someone she had seen at the drive-in a “boy with shaggy black hair, in a convertible jalopy painted gold.” She mistakes him for one of the typical teenage boys she usually hangs out with. Unfortunately, for Connie this could not be further from the truth. One Sunday afternoon while home alone, Arnold Friend unexpectedly shows up on her doorstep. Connie feels confident that she can handle him, noting
To be effective the rewards must be desired by the target group e.g. financial inducements. * Legitimate power – generally known as authority and implies the power to act as well as the power over resources and is invariably limited in some way. * Expert power – which comes from possessing specialist knowledge and skills and is dependent on the expertise being recognised by those concerned, thus credibility is vital otherwise no one will take any notice. * Referent power – generally known as personal power or charisma and comes from the high regard the individual is held by others should this falter or wane then this form of power vanishes, but is often employed in conjunction with other sources.
After he clocked out of his day job he would head straight to his garage and work on his race cars.

Sometimes Earnhardt had to spend more money than he made,therefore he to borrow the funds to cover the expensive.

His West Egg fortune comes from working as a business man, typical for most West Eggers who earn money through painstaking years of struggle. Oddly enough, Nick is the only character who knows the distinction between East and West Egg. When he goes to Gatsby’s party he “believed they [young men] didn’t –drift coolly out of nowhere and buy a palace” in West Egg rather similar to the wealthy East Egg aristocrats (49). Nick represents all American’s today- a middle class person who generally does not desire for the future true goal in the American Dream, but eventually, stick with what they have. Although Nick grew up as a prosperous East Egger, he prefers to just go along with his ordinary
Also Tom is incredibly wealthy due to the fact that he was born in old money (who lives on east egg). During the reading we will also uncover that Tom is having an affair with another women Myrtle Wilson, the wife of Tom’s business partner. Tom first meets Gatsby when he approaches Nick in the speak easy in chapter 4 where Nick and Gatsby had lunch with Meyer Wolfshiem. The introduction between them was quite brief as we realized that Gatsby might had known him and shortly disappeared. The next encounter he had with Gatsby was when he had attended one of his parties with Daisy.
What is the most pivotal chapter in The Great Gatsby? Within this essay I will explain how chapter 3 is the most pivotal chapter within The Great Gatsby. It is pivotal as it’s the first time the reader is confronted with Gatsby’s character; It is also when the reader first gets an understanding of what Gatsby’s ostentatious lifestyle is like through his party and guests marvelling of his Rolls Royce this also tells us how much he is willing to spend to get Daisy’s attention; we also learn that Gatsby spends his time alone at parties and finally Owl Eyes crashing the his car foreshadows future events. The first reason why chapter 3 is the most pivotal chapter within the Great Gatsby is because it when we are first greeted with Gatsby as a character. We learn that he is just an ordinary person as Nick managed to not realise who he was until Gatsby introduced himself, what this means is that the reader can view Gatsby as a person rather than a rumour after this point.
They got too close to Minkow and became too dependent on his business. As a result, they allowed themselves to become easy targets for Minkow’s manipulation. The lesson from this case is that auditors must remain objective and independent from audit clients. In addition, auditors must apply professional skepticism throughout an audit engagement. It should be noted that there might be cases where fraud is extremely difficult to detect.
