Rhett has had a complete change of heart. Early on, at the bazaar during the war, he told Scarlett that money could buy everything. Now, he claims that money can’t buy reputation. Scarlett has also had a change of heart: when she watched the Old Guard at Fanny Elsing’s wedding, she couldn’t understand why they acted like ladies and gentlemen even though their money was gone. She felt that only money could buy prestige and power. Rhett and Scarlett have swapped opinions—and Rhett’s opinions suggest that he thinks Scarlett hasn’t been successful as she’s gone about amassing power.
