Not like that, because how much money someone is willing to spend is simply not an interesting area to compete in.

Spending money IS a factor in success, how much of one is irrelevant since there's nothing that says you can only be strong in one of the areas that lead to success.

Having skill lead to success is a fundamental element of competition, so of course that should be in the game. Having time spent lead to success is more debatable, but you could still argue that it's a good thing to have in a competition. (Though here, I would claim that time spent should only matter to the degree that it increases skill. Spamming tournaments shouldn't really be a factor.)

Having money spent lead to success benefits the developers, but not competition. In fact, that's exactly the stated reason for luxury taxes and similar measures taken by sports... to make the leagues more competitive.
