Really his legend is all couched in innuendo and rumor. People claim he is everything from a spy to a war hero. Gatsby wants to remain an enigma. He made his fortune through bootlegging but this isn't the only reason he remains mysterious. Gatsby throws lavish parties but rarely makes an appearance.
