Drug dealers have a pretty high-earning type of job. So do high-class prostitutes. Meanwhile, some of the greatest productions of the human mind have come from people who were destitute, through focus on their greatest love above all else.
I don't think it's likely that many great minds will tend to find middle management, or even upper management, at a company of the most intense interest. Earning money will hopefully be a side effect of a happy, productive brilliant person, but it's certainly not a guarantee. I certainly don't think that the products of happy, productive brilliant people who aren't wealthy are necessarily of less value to themselves and society than those of wealthier normals.
Money is certainly important, but I think you need to stop thinking of your daughter's reading and other activities in terms of implications for future earnings!!
