Question

which excerpt from the great gatsby best indicates that nick is not fully content with his life? he didnt say any more, but weve always been unusually communicative in a reserved way, and i understood that he meant a great deal more than that. father agreed to finance me for a year, and after various delays i came east, permanently, i thought, in the spring of twenty - two. instead of being the warm center of the world, the middle west now seemed like the ragged edge of the universe - so i decided to go east and learn the bond business. i had a dog—at least i had him for a few days until he ran away—and an old dodge and a finnish woman, who made my bed and cooked breakfast and muttered finnish wisdom to herself over the electric stove.

Explanation:

The phrase "Instead of being the warm center of the world, the Middle West now seemed like the ragged edge of the universe" shows Nick's dissatisfaction with his current environment (the Middle West). His decision to "go East" implies a search for something more fulfilling, indicating he is not fully content with his life in the Middle West.

Answer:

Instead of being the warm center of the world, the Middle West now seemed like the ragged edge of the universe —so I decided to go East and learn the bond business.
