The great gatsby
The Great Gatsby is a novel by American author F. Scott Fitzgerald. The book was first published in 1925, and it has been republished in 1945 and 1953. There are two settings for the novel. The first setting is on Long Island's North Shore and the second major setting is in New York City. The book is set within the year 1922 from the spring to the autumn.
The Great Gatsby takes place during a prosperous time in American History. In 1922, America has fully recovered from the First World War, and enjoying prosperity during the 1920s. The economy soared and emotions ran high. Yet, at the same time, Prohibition, the ban on the sale and manufacture of alcohol as mandated by the Eighteenth Amendment, was gaining traction. The title character of The Great Gatsby is a young man, around thirty years old, who rose from an impoverished childhood in rural North Dakota to become fabulously wealthy. However, he achieved this lofty goal by participating in organized crime, including distributing illegal alcohol and trading in stolen securities. From his early youth, Gatsby despised poverty and longed for wealth and sophistication—he dropped out of St. Olaf’s College after only two weeks because he could not bear the janitorial job with which he was paying his tuition. Though Gatsby has always wanted to be rich, his main motivation in acquiring his fortune was his love for Daisy Buchanan, whom he met as a young military officer in Louisville before leaving to fight in World War I in 1917. Gatsby immediately fell in love with Daisy’s aura of luxury, grace, and charm, and lied to her about his own background in order to convince her that he was good enough for her. Daisy promised to wait for him when he left for the war, but married Tom Buchanan in 1919, while Gatsby was studying at Oxford after the war in an attempt to gain an education. From that moment on, Gatsby dedicated himself to winning Daisy back, and his acquisition of millions of dollars, his purchase of a gaudy mansion on West Egg, and his lavish weekly parties are all merely means to that end.
The ban on alcohol made millionaires out of bootleggers, who were smuggling in the illegal substance. That scenario is the backdrop for the novel, which contributed to its popularity. After the novel was republished in 1945 and 1953, The Great Gatsby quickly found a wide readership. Today the book is widely regarded as the epitome of the Great American Novel, and a literary classic.
Gina Rinehart is worlds richest woman
Australian mining magnate Gina Rinehart became the world’s richest woman as her fortune almost tripled to A$29.2 billion ($28.6 billion), according to a ranking of the nation’s wealthiest people by BRW magazine.
Rinehart, who controls Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd.,leads Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT)’s Christy Walton, whose wealth is estimated at A$26 billion, BRW said in a statement today.
The 58-year-old Australian, who had a fortune of A$10.3 billion last year, remained at the top of the list of Australia’s 200 wealthiest people for the second consecutive year. Rinehart is ranked the 31st richest person in the world, with a net worth of $18.1 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index..
Walton has held the top spot on Forbes' list for the past seven years.
The mining magnate has grown her wealth by an unparalleled $18.8 billion this year even as the feud with her three eldest children continues to play out in court.
BRW Rich List editor Andrew Heathcote said Ms Rinehart was a contender for the world’s richest person. To do this she would have to pass the $69 billion fortune of Mexican telecommunications mogul Carlos Slim Helu.
A recovery in the iron ore price in the past six months and foreign investment in new projects has driven her growth and Heathcote said a $100 billion fortune within years was not out of the question.
“If the demand for natural resources remains strong, additional multi-billion mines are almost inevitable,” he said.
“There is a real possibility that Rinehart will become not just the richest woman in the world but the richest person in the world.”
