"I lived at West Egg the- well, the less fashionable of the two, though this is a most superficial tag to express the bizarre and not a little sinister between them. " (pg 5) " " Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable east egg glittered along the water.." (pg 5)

Gangsters are the most talked about crime family. Gangsters are feared and hated.
The stories that surround men like Al Capone and "Bugs" Moran, were discovered in the 1920's because they went against prohibition.

Old vs. New Money
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjwjJwEpR2kxF4z8Cb6HqsecVN1Js6ldKqElEi5hmQ3awaPjGq88mfChKO8WYa6cLHf4fa8B2L0QoUp9NDTxaLHWk9Fg1rb1j0VELdNysvGNIu1knsgWAAgO98SnX45g5Sj5BqI_NB_Vlb/s320/heds.gif)
Old vs. New money describe the two different kinds of upper class people. Old money are people who have always had money and lived in the upper class most or all of their lives. They tend to be more selfish because they don't know what it's like to have to earn money.Daisy and Tom Buchanan resemble the group "old money", Daisy is always consumed in the materialistic things like when she hits myrtle she doesn't stop to see if she's okay, she is only worried about the consequences. These people associated in the "old money" group are selfish, shallow, and lack values. Jordan Baker is a perfect example of this in the book, she is consumed with herself, she makes a comment saying people should be careful of her when shes driving.

The "New Money" group of people are ones who came into a lot of money or worked hard for their money in a short amount of time. Gatsby is an example of this by how got his money from inheriting some and some from his business deals. Although we find out later in the book that Gatsby got his money from bootlegging he still has values. None the Less The people of West Egg have more values out of the two groups but still are greedy, superficial, and spend excessively. Even though the two have some difference they still have the same thing in common the love for money.
