Not really.
Suits are flattering to the male figure because they smooth out the difference between a man's waist and his thighs, and accentuate the shoulders. That's not a fashion statement, that's an explanation of why suits are timeless.
With that said, they're fairly difficult to get fitted right. So wearing a suit that actually fits you says one of two things - you either buy new suits all the time to ensure that your suits actually fit you (in which case, yes, a suit signals that you have money), or you have the self-discipline to maintain your figure so that you don't need to buy a new suit all the time as you gain weight.
The fact is, either quality is desirable. It's those qualities that make suit-wearing the signal that it is. People who don't have at least one of those qualities, can't pull off wearing a suit.
