A Man of Means is a collection of six humorous short stories by P. G. Wodehouse, first published in 1916. The stories, originally appearing in The Strand Magazine in 1914, follow Roland Bleke, a young clerk whose life takes a comedic turn after he unexpectedly comes into wealth. As he navigates the absurdities of newfound fortune and social expectations, Bleke finds himself in increasingly ridiculous situations, highlighting themes of social class and romance. The collection showcases Wodehouse's signature wit and humor, making it a notable work in early 20th-century literature.
