Levels of truth mixed with attempts at stereotyping
There are examples of rich and poor folks with roles reversed in the image
The question is how many folks will file this image in their memory for later stereotyping use

there are numerous wealthy people who spend large amounts on their clothing and apperance
This is bullshyt. Even though some wealthy people do tend to dress really basic they still wear designer. They'll have on some ugly ass K-mart looking shoes that cost a good 2,000. And a plain white v-neck that costs 700.
The part that is true is the flashyness though. Most of the nikkas who wear gucci belts, trues, and jays are broke. Basically if you're whole style is based off of flashy brands you're either broke, a whiteboy, or you have the mind of a middle schooler.

Horrible example of stereotyping that looks more like a middle class dude then rich. Rich folks are wearing there Gucci loafers, polo shirts Ralph Lauren of course and some ugly Hugo Boss trousers.

my question is why does the "broke" cat gotta be brown whereas the rich dude is white??? 
dude on the left is broke on paper. what's in his pockets, though?
and the dude on the left has enough money for 999 of his counterparts to be millionaires. instead, he likely wants more money. wearing cheap shyt doesn't give him the high ground. no matter how you slice it, clothes don't make the man.
i guess what i'm saying is that neither one is doing what they are supposed to be doing. add that to the fact that this is a pretty dumb ass fukking generalization to being with.

They must have not seen bill gates house 
Who do you think keeps the likes of Ferrari, Gucci and Lamborghini in business? It's definitely not broke black men from tne hood.
Why am I even bothering to reply to this nonsense

Where would a billionaire who's probably worried about his security would even pick up these items or even know the cost..
In a way it's true but in a way it's a stereotype. But then again people say stereotypes have a lot of truth to them. But i see what the creator of the image was trying to say and I can't front it's kinda true
Where is it implied that their clothing choices CAUSED their financial statuses?
