Who are selfish people? Selfish people are people who only do things for themselves and do not care for the well beings of others around them. These kinds of people will hurt others to get what they really want for example they will sabotage a system so that they can get money not caring if it will hurt other peoples money problems. some type of selfish people are business men, criminals, or movie stars. These people can be selfish because all of there success or failures has made them think of them as the best or as if no one else matters as long is they get what they want.
In the Great Gatsby most of the people are very selfish especially in east egg. Tom is cheating on his wife so that he can get some fun. Tom does not care for his wives feelings because he would just leave in the middle of lunch to go talk to his other girl. Tom also expects people to live up to a certain standard that even he doesnt live up to making him a very selfish person.
