Amirali. Check this one. I think it qualifies for getting rich in all aspects of life. Not just money cause money without health would be useless. IMHO.
Early to bed
Early to rise
And a little bit of exercise
Makes man halthy, WEALTHY and wise.  [image not available]

I would like you to look on these proverbs that relate to money or wealth...
=> A fool and his money are soon parted.
=> Really wealthy don't talk about money.
=> You will keep your friends if you avoid disputes over money. (I really like this proverb... and it is really true...)
=> Health is better than wealth.

Your health is your wealth.
Money is the most envied, but the least enjoyed. Health is the most enjoyed, but the least envied.

A penny saved is a penny earned.
Don't spend more than you can earn. (note to self :p)

IMac - About the origin of the saying you refer to: I suspect the Evangelist borrowed the motto of the League of Levantine Seamstresses (LOLS)

This is not true, there are other ways to lose friends. Rather, its converse is true: ==> You will not keep your friends if you dispute about money. Look after the pennies, and the pounds will look after themselves
