Daisy, in turn, married a wealthy businessman, Tom. She had rejected the marriage proposal of Gatsby, five years back, as he did not possess much wealth then. The use of wealth as an instrument for shaping the lives of people is amply provided by the author, while describing the obsession of a lady, named Daisy, by Jay. Jay is a wealthy, man fond of throwing extravagant weekend parties at his huge mansion. Returning home he takes up the Bond business and settles in New York City, where Jay Gatsby lives as his next-door neighbour. Later Nick joins the army and is posted in France during World War I. The character of Nick Carraway is displayed as being an educated young man, who grew up in the Midwestern United States while receiving education from Yale University. Scott Fitzgerald has discussed class, wealth and social standing in his novel, “The Great Gatsby”.
