The landed gentry were a group of upper class people.
The nouveau riche (french for "new rich") where poorer people who acquired welath within his or her generation, allowing them to buy goods or luxuries which they were unable to buy before.
As the nouveau riche are people who gained money, the landed gentry would feel threatened by these people because the landed gentry were posh people who were used to having lots of money and other people also having money would upset them. As people gain money they also gain status, so the nouveau riche would gain status in their generation too. If these people reach upper class, the landed gentry would have felt as if money was no longer worth as much if other people from lower down (in status ranks) could also get hold of it. The landed gentry wouldn't have liked the nouveau riche.

What type of man is Gatsby?
Gatsby is a member of the nouveau riche, the newly rich. He earns his money as a bootlegger during Prohibition. However great he may seem, he ultimately feels unfulfilled with his money and grossly inadequate. More than anything, he longs for the love of Daisy, who is of "old money"; we can think of her as a member of the gentry. Her lineage is pure, which is why she wears white, and her financial stability is well-established by generations of American aristocrats. In some way, Gatsby is a self-made man who longs for a better life by way of the American Dream. However, his money and his notoriety are not enough to lure the haughty Daisy from her established, shallow lifestyle, and he remains unfulfilled.
