Mishnah 11b
Rabbi Yonasan says: Whoever fulfills the study of Torah despite poverty will ultimately fulfill it in wealth; . . .
This statement is just one of many factors that determine whether or not one will be wealthy. There have been many people, such as Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa, who dedicated themselves to Torah study out of abject poverty, and who never became wealthy. Sometimes, wealth is more of a curse than a blessing, and sometimes poverty may be more of a blessing than a curse.
