Gatsby's character

Gatsby has always been an ambitious man, but he was unluckily born to extremely poor parents. To get the girl of his dreams, he becomes a criminal, selling illegal alcoholic beverages, and quickly becomes wealthy.

He wants to prove to others that he is rich, so he chooses a most exaggerated mansion to live in. Gatsby wishes to be accepted by the high society, so he projects this false image of himself by driving a flashy car and throwing grand parties.
