How Much Would It Cost to be Gatsby?

by Maryann Pisano on May 14, 2015

How much would it cost to actually be Jay Gatsby?  Gatsby is the poster child of wealth and excessive living.  But was Jay’s life realistic?  Today, a day in the life of Gatsby would be over 34 million.  This doesn’t include bills, cell phones, food, vacations, clothes, or any other luxury Gatsby might have had.  Do you think the book was realistic?
