In the Great Gatsby, Mr. Gatsby describes Daisy as, "her voice is filled with money".?

In the Great Gatsby, Mr. Gatsby describes Daisy as, "her voice is filled with money".?
I'd say that it literally means she has the cultivated, sophisticated accent of the very wealthy.

But more than that, it's a metaphor meant by the author to convey an impression of "richness" and "desirability" upon the reader.
