This is well intended. But the downside to this is that the math is not there for everyone with a goal to end up on top. It is an oversimplification.
I'd say the only goal anyone should have is do the best you can. I have seen lots of successful people I hate, and lots of middle class and poor people I love.
It is ok to have goals. It is not ok to go after them to the point you run over others, or become suicidal because you are chasing an unrealistic expectation.
Life is still a crapshoot. Balance is the key.
