Quote 1
"still, he said, Americans have always believed in possibilities. And they have consistently said over time they could start poor in this country and become rich" ( Seelye )

That quote explains that you can start off poor but if you push yourself to succeed then the possibilities will come and you will gain wealth.

Quote 2
"Perhaps the newest definition of the American Dream comes from the national endowment for financial education, which nearly half adults define the American Dream as a comfortable retirement"( Kadle )

That quote explains that it is important to keep your wealth throughout your whole life so you may live comfortably for you whole life and provide for the people you love or care about.

"The Great Gatby"

Wealth and success relates to " The Great Gatsby " because in the book Jay Gatsby was a poor child and fell in love with a girl named Daisy. He wanted to win her so he worked hard and became rich and successful.

So what?

Wealth relates to our ism today because people in the world would rather be wealthy and work for what they want, rather then not working and not getting anything.
