Because of this lifestyle, as well as the bills from Zelda's medical care when they came, Fitzgerald was constantly in financial trouble and often required loans from his literary agent, Harold Ober, and his editor at Scribner's, Maxwell Perkins.
Zbog ovakvog načina života, kao i zbog Zeldinih medicinskih troškova, Ficdžerald je konstantno bio u finansijskim problemima i često je tražio pozajmice od svog agenta Harolda Obera i urednika u Skribneru, Maksvela Perkinsa.
