To a homeless person, I could well imagine the top is a regular well paying job and a home they own - Which should be achievable in 10 years with hard work, education, internships, career ladder.
The top of the mountain is relative to where you are now. For many people at the 'top', may actually consider that the bottom, especially if they were born into it. The top in their case is Bill Gates, Zuckerburg etc. e.g. the Winklevoss twins.

Ofcourse everybody has a different top. But most stories like this one start with a descent position. But even the crappiest job can be a million miles away when you don't have access to education, internship, a career ladder.
