How many of you have high paying jobs, and how have you prevented your material means and social circles from eroding your leftist convictions?

I am on the precipice of one and don't want that to turn me into a disengaged normies, lib, or chud. I know that a local DSA chapter was financially backed by a person of incredible means, so I wonder what keeps such people left wing or at least SocDem.

I currently make more than the median income where I live, but have been poor my entire life prior except childhood. Seen too much.
My wage labor position holds very little power over me now and I am doing it mainly to pay my rent, help my kid and eat. I have done so many jobs and also lost so many over the years. I own nothing and am too old to ever be able to, no matter how much I get paid.
Being late (un)diagnosed audhd I am very sensitive to injustice and have been all my life. I have no social circles that I am interested in apart from my partner and kid who are both just like me. I am dedicated to communism to my core, in my work it is the driver of most of the choices I make as I do have some power that can make a difference. I am in a position where I can spread the message so to speak.
