Summary
Details

"""Making Money"" is a novel written by Owen Johnson, an American author known for his works that often explore themes of finance, social status, and the complexities of human relationships. Published in 1909, ""Making Money"" is one of Johnson's most notable novels.

The story revolves around the protagonist, Richard Storm, a young man from a humble background who is determined to succeed in the world of finance. Ambitious and driven, Storm rises through the ranks of Wall Street, navigating the cutthroat world of business and finance with skill and determination.

As Storm climbs the ladder of success, he encounters various challenges and moral dilemmas. He grapples with questions of ethics and integrity, particularly as he becomes increasingly entangled in the pursuit of wealth and power.

Central to the novel is the theme of the corrupting influence of money and the consequences of unchecked ambition. Johnson explores the tension between financial success and personal values, as Storm wrestles with the moral implications of his actions and the sacrifices he must make to achieve his goals.

Through Storm's journey, Johnson offers a critique of the excesses of the Gilded Age and the ruthless pursuit of profit at the expense of human decency. The novel paints a vivid portrait of early 20th-century America, capturing the frenetic energy of Wall Street and the social dynamics of the era.

With its sharp social commentary and compelling narrative, ""Making Money"" remains a relevant and thought-provoking exploration of wealth, power, and the pursuit of the American Dream."
