-No, I don't think gato was a better shinobi because gato isn't a shinobi.
-No, I don't think they're better just because they have more money.
-This isn't just about being a shinobi, it's also about their character and their influence in the world they live in. Naruto's wealth plays a role in his character and the people in his family. I never said it was a major contributing factor.
-Gato's role was a mob boss that used people as tools bought with money and we know what lesson was learned from that arc.
- I'm not reaching because i'm not putting him on the level as obito and the others. You are for some reason, on the basis of his wealth (the most his money did was stunt a bridge construction) and trying to make gato a shinobi when he isn't. Not to mention Obito and Madara were leaders of a mercenary group and controlled a small village so they had some form of wealth on top of influence and power.
-Gato also had no positive influence or positive power. In fact, the person he hired ended up killing him and his crew disbanded and abandoned him.
-Wealth has it's role in the NV, big or small.
@wealth

Naruto's wealth and position is part of his character and political power. Same with Sasuke.
I should have added his father was leader of the uchiha and police force.
