Girl I’ve been seeing blocks me and ends things for a reason I don’t get

A couple days ago I went on a first date with this girl; we had a great time, laughed a lot, made out in the back of my car. We liked each other so much we decided to see each other the next day too.

We met up at a restaurant. Conversation was good, we were snuggled up in a booth, and then she mentions wanting to becoming filthy rich. For context, I’m in University, and she’s working full time. Her dad kicked her out at 17 so she struggled and dropped out of school. She was a good student before tho. Anyway, this is when I said: “oh that’s a cool goal, wouldn’t you wanna go back to school though to get that rich?”.

I did NOT say that in a judgmental way, because I really wasn’t judging her or looking down on her. I’ve been raised in a way that school is a straightforward path to success. Not that I think it’s the only way or that it’s superior to people who work, I was literally just suggested one possible path for her…

So she wants to end things between us, said it was a sensitive point and I really hurt her, that I “dont believe in her and her goals” and it’s her birthday this week and she doesn’t wanna feel down like this on her bday. I tried to reassure her that wasn’t the case but it didn’t work. I just don’t get how saying what I said could 180 flip her like that.

Is there anything I can do or say???
