Dan Cody was a self-made man who made a fortune in mining and had moored his yacht near where Gatsby was working. Gatsby noticed a storm brewing and rowed out to warn Cody of the storm. In gratitude, Cody offered Gatsby a job, and Gatsby became a general assistant to Cody.
Dan Cody is a millionaire who is sailing in his boat and meets up with James Gatz. He takes on the charming young and allows him to travel about with him and learn about the life of a wealthy man.
Cody was a heavy drinker, and one of Gatsby's jobs was to look after him during his drunken binges. This gave Gatsby a healthy respect for the dangers of alcohol and convinced him not to become a drinker himself. When Cody died, he left Gatsby $25,000, but Cody's mistress prevented him from claiming his inheritance.
Gatsby's response tells the reader that he lacks a certain amount of social sensibility and is unable to recognize social cues. Gatsby misinterprets Mrs. Sloane's invitation and accepts the offer without realizing that she is simply being polite. Gatsby enthusiastically accepts the offer in hopes that he will see Daisy at the dinner and prove that he is worthy of being in her social circle.
“I feel far away from her,” he said. “It's hard to make her understand.” Daisy tries very hard to appear to be impressed by Gatsby's guests and by his party. The atmosphere at the party is subdued compared to the usual frivolity at Gatsby's parties however.

I would say the answer is"Beat artists most desired direct and varied life experiences" based on the behaviour of the beat artist mentioned above.</span>
