Patrician is a class connotation, not necessarily a wealth connotation. True, at the beginning of the city, the patricians were the wealthy class, owning most of the land and the wealth the land generated. However over the years many patrician families lost their wealth, the dictator Sulla, being a prime example. Julius Caesar himself, although a patrician, was not a wealthy man at the start of his career. In the class conscious Roman society, if you were born into a patrician family, you were a patrician, no matter what you financial status happened to be.
