But how will they stay rich?

i’m not carrying water for millionaires, just being realistic about the capitalist world we live in.

If everyone "stays realistic" about the way the world is then the reality is the world stays the way it is. If enough people expect the unrealistic outcome then maybe it could be real.

firstly, you don't have "enough" socialists to make that kind of change, and secondly if you're stuck in an idealist mindset then you may miss on good solutions just because they aren't perfect in your opinion.
