Rich people are everywhere but it is often hard to see into the lives of them. In the novel, The Great Gatsby, the author, Fitzgerald, attempts at giving the reader a better insight into this topic and succeeds. The unbearable attitude of the elite is shown mostly through the character of Daisy. As well, Tom and Jordan show the way of life for the very rich in what seems to be the truth throughout the novel. They all are very snobbish and boring people who feel they are superior to those around them, especially the people who live in West Egg. In the story of The Great Gatsby, Daisy, Tom, and Jordan, show the carelessness and snobbish attitude of the very rich.

Daisy is the character of the novel that proves all the dispicable thoughts and ideas the very rich have towards life. She shows that the people from East Egg are very snobby and inconsiderate. Everyone, especially Nick realizes that "Daisy was young and her artificial world was redolent of orchids and pleasant, cheerful snobbery and orchestras, which set the rythm of the year summing up the sadness and suggestiveness of life in new tunes." (p.151) Daisy is a pompous, rich girl, who cares mostly about herself before

others. At some point in time all the characters of the novel come to grips with this fact about Daisy and realize "Her voice is full of money." (p.120) Gatsby is one of the first to realize this. He longed to acheive wealth so he could be with this woman and is now realizing that she isn't what he thought she was. She cares mostly about money, not feelings, as the very rich often do. "She wanted her life shaped now, immediately - and the decision must be made by some force - of love, of money, of unquestionable practicality." (p.151), which shows that Daisy's life plans must be made always with money as a factor. Deep down inside she is an unthoughtful person who puts her needs before the people she pretends to care for. This is proven when "she [vanishes] into her rich house, into her rich, full life, leaving Gatsby - nothing." (p. 149) She acts as though she is in love with Gatsby, but instead choses her rich luxurious life style over him. When attending one of Gatsby's famous parties Nick notices that "She was appalled by West Egg, this unprecedent "place" that Broadway had begotten upon, an Long Island fishing village - appalled by its raw vigor that chafer under the old euphemisms and by the too obtrusive fate that herded its inhabitants along a short-cut from nothing to nothing." (p. 108) This shows that Daisy places herself above others because of her wealthy status. She is a snob who easily gets bored with what people in West Egg call a party. Although her superior feeling is disgusting in itself her inablility to face consequenses is much worse. After hitting Myrtle with her car, Gatsby explains to Nick that "Daisy stepped on it. [He] tried to make her stop but she couldn't , so [he] pulled on the emergency break. Then she fell into [his] lap and drove on." (p. 145) After hitting a woman Dais
