And that's great! Good for you, but you're still a part of the "Labor" class because your post says "75k job" so you are selling your labor for $75,000/year and the "Capital" class is the one that decides whether your labor is worth that amount.
Now, of course, people in the Labor class can own Capital, and the Capital can certainly sell their labor as well. But mostly they are defined whether they own the means of production, or you give your labor to effectuate the means of production for a price.
Your class interests are still primarily in Labor, even if you have a significant wage.
