Reflection+on+Money+in+America

We are Americans Gatsby had it right. How better to get someones interest than to buy it. Despite what I say on another of my pages, the phrase money can't buy happiness is ridiculous. Could he have ever gotten Daisy's interest if he had remained a poor wanderer in the Midwest? No, she would have never found him. While getting rich did not ultimatly win her over, it facilitated the chance he did have brought him close. All of that said unless you are pursuing the rich money doesn't grow on trees and I would imagine it is much easier to not to have to earn it so therefor a lack of it is just as acceptable, isn't it?
