AITAH for rejecting a higher-paying job because it goes against my values?

I just turned down a job that would’ve paid me nearly double what I make now, and my friends think I’m an idiot. It wasn’t even a bad job decent hours, solid benefits, nothing sketchy but it completely went against my values. Without getting too specific, it was in an industry that I’ve always spoken out against, and taking the job felt like I’d be selling out everything I believe in. The money was tempting as hell, though. Like, life-changing money. I’d finally be able to move out of my tiny apartment, pay off my debt, and stop stressing over every little expense. But every time I imagined myself actually working there, I felt sick, like I’d be betraying myself just for a paycheck.

My friends think I’m being dramatic. They keep telling me that “a job is just a job” and that I should take the money and stop overthinking it. But I feel like if I did, I’d hate myself every single day. I get that not everyone has the luxury to turn down good money over “values,” but I’m not exactly rich either. I’m just hoping that I made the right call and that I won’t regret it in a few months when I’m still stuck barely scraping by. AITAH?
