'one's associates' is the definition.
'comrades' can be an answer for 'associates' ('comrade' can be a synonym of 'associate'). I am unsure of the 'one's' bit.

'comes out right nowadays' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates putting letters inside.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'nowadays' becomes 'ad'.
'r'+'ad'='rad'
'comes' placed around 'rad' is 'COMRADES'.

'for' is the link.
