What are the five elements that make up Jay Gatsby's American dream in The Great Gatsby??

Also for each of the five elements, what is wrong with either Gatsby's concept of the dream or the way his attemps to attain it??





If anyone could help with one or both questions that would be great! Thanks in advance. :)What are the five elements that make up Jay Gatsby's American dream in The Great Gatsby??
Daisy is the main one. He does everything in order to get her.





Money? He's involved with illegal mob activity to gain it.





His house/social status. He's never really ';in'; because he's ';new money'; as opposed to ';old money.';





Hope this helped a little.
