Why would it? Less worry about the money - yes. More wealth - no. If anything it will cost you all you have.

Most monks are poor. Sadhus have nothing.

No, to make money means to manipulate reality. To envision yourself in a position that gives you a lot of money and status. And then working and planing to get there.

Spiritual growth is all about accepting reality the way it is.

With spiritual growth you may find it easier to make money but you wont be interested in bettering your position in life because you see that its already perfect the way it is.

This not black and white tho. Even after doing lots of spiritual work you will still feel a need for luxury and money because it is so ingrained in our society. So in some cases spiritual growth may lead to making more money (see osho for example). Just if making money is your only goal I feel like there are better ways to achieve that than with spiritual growth.
