^why is always the furries with the high paying job…^

My best guess is because furries in general are very into STEM fields and those happen to pay a lot of money. There's also a high correlation between being a furry and being on the autism spectrum, so if your special interest happens to be STEM-related then it's cheat codes for big money and being great at your job. Furries have a ton of correlated attributes, e.g. 80%+ of us are queer, and they're very interesting as a social phenomenon. I hope someone someday figures out what causes furries, because it's more complicated than nature or nurture.
