Being a salesman is not a very grounded occupation,

"for a salesman, there’s no rock bottom to the life. He don’t put a bolt to a nut, he don’t tell you the law or give you medicine."

Charley points out that a salesman like Willy (not very successful) has to dream. His existence depends on the illusion of success. Without this illusion, he has nothing left.
