A wealthy person is he who's rich and has enough to share with people.

Now take a look at this scenario and tell me who's a wealthy person here.

In a neighbourhood, one man builds and lives in a mansion worth millions of naira with his family while they sell water in front of thier compound. Just above the fence of his compound is another man who lives in a tattered house with his family too. This man living in a tattered building through his wife and children make use of the small empty land in the compound by planting vegetables such as pumpkins, water leaves, curri leaves etc on the land for domestic consumption. The family of the man living in mansion having known such crops are cultivated in the neighbour's compound usually go there to beg for these vegetables of which the owners do give them freely. Meanwhile, the family of the man living in tattered has been buying water from the man living in mansion and had never for once been given for free.

The question now is, who's a wealthy person (the one who has something to share freely with others) in this case?

The man in the mansion. He is rich physicaly whereas the poor man that gives for free is rich spiritualy.
My verdict.

the willingness to share/give out goes a long way

Are we talking money or virtue here? Since the possession of vegetables and such are insufficient to make the man's house "untattered", he is technically poor

But then, he exhibits the habit of a wealthy man than he who lives in mansion. So to me, he's wealthy than he who lives in man.

Don't be mistaken, don't get it twisted.

The dude in the mansion is the wealthy man. The one with the tattered house only has a kind heart.

Besides, we can't tell the path that the mansion owner has had to walk through, he isn't a bad person for selling his water. Don't get your judgement clouded by free 'maggi'.
