Question

‘Tom was literally rolling in wealth.’ What is the wealth that Tom had gathered and
why does the writer call it ‘wealth’?

Answer 1

Answer:

money

Explanation:

Answer 2

My first guess would be money of some kind; however, it is difficult to provide assistance without more excerpts from the passage. It depends on what Tom has gained a lot of. And to answer why it's called "wealth", that is a synonym to "gained money" or something along that line.

I suggest using context clues or re-reading the passage to determine what the wealth is.
