The quote is about him not having been able to afford shoes. Can the other guy not be able to afford feet? Hardly. You can lose a part of your body no matter how much money or other materialistic stuff you have, and you can be perfectly healthy when you're poor. Being able to afford proper health care helps, in which case wealth has an influence on health, but it is not the general rule and so these two things are very much incomparable.
