Willy believes that ‘individual opportunity’ just comes naturally after being well-liked. His aspect of being successful is to simply be well-liked. He thinks that it is more important of who you than of what you`re capable of doing. With the case of Biff, who has trouble in math class, Willy doesn`t think that he has to worry about passing math since he is well-liked and he doesn`t have to worry about education so much since he is well-liked. Once again, well-liked meaning that Biff can still get a nice job or successful job even though he doesn`t pass math.

In my opinion, it doesn`t matter whether or not you are well-liked or not to become successful. There are many people who don`t even have many friends and are no where near being popular, but they still become doctors, lawyers, etc. Being well-liked shouldn`t determine would you can become, it`s just a matter of what you can do and how serious you are about your education to be successful in the long run. Also, it is important to have some kind of support, such as from your parents, when trying to be successful. In the case of Biff, he doesn`t really have a parent pushing him for successful because his own parent believes that he doesn`t have to pass a class to be successful and as long as he is well-liked classes don`t matter.
