1.) The purpose of Meyer Wolfsheim is to show the connections between Nick and Mr. Gatsby. Nick is in the bond business as well as Meyer Wolfsheim. Wolfsheim connects Gatsby and Nick in another unrelated way. Wolfsheim also shows contrast between Gatsby and Nick. Nick does not particularly like Wolfsheim at first and gives Nick an uncomfortable feeling being around him.
2.) The background story of Gatsby and Daisy gives us the impression that Gatsby is shy and innocent in a way. He wants Daisy to remember him for who he is and like him without knowing that the crush she had is the rich and extravagant man living across the bay.
3.) The addition of the rest of Gatsby past gives us a more respectable view of Gatsby because he has a logical timeline of events and experiences to back him up. The story he tells us also disproves the rumors going around about him and builds his credibility.
4.) Over the last 3 Chapters i have come to like Gatsby more. He is the kind of guy i would hang out with on a Saturday.
