Death of a Salesman chronicles Willy Loman's final descent into a mad unreality. During one of these episodes of unreality, as he conducts a vociferous conversation with Ben, his long-dead brother, his next door neighbor, Charley, enters. They begin to play cards, both men trading insults, until Charley gives up and returns home. In this crucial encounter, one friend is a foil for the other in Miller's dramatic exposition of the meaning of a successful life. Charley's is real, while Willy's is a sham. Both men know this, but are unwilling to admit it to eachother. Thus, out of envy, Willy insists that a real man is one who knows how to handle tools. Thus, out of pity, which he knows he can't reveal to Willy, Charley offers his friend a job, aware even as he says it, that it is doomed to be refused.

Biff comments to Charley that Willy had all the wrong dreams, but Charley answers that a salesman must have dreams to live. Hope this helps. And next time please do your own homework.
Charley warns Willy about letting his sons steal lumber.
Willy is very jealous of them and how they become successful, bu he thinks they are complete dorks.
Charley is the juxtaposition of Willy, without Charley a lot of Willy's true flaws would not be revealed. Through Charley you realise that Willy was more a victim of his own personal flaws rather than that of an unfair capitalist regime.
