I think that attachment to superfluous things is conventional for all other religious, not only Buddhism and is not one major point in Buddha's teachings. A Buddhist can be rich, very rich or even excessive rich as long as he/she does not cheat others, or breach the precepts and the laws.

A household-life Buddhist is not required to donate all of his/her assets, but need to study/know how to manage them usefully as those assets, in fact, are not belonging to us, but they are belonging to this world. We just borrow them from the world.
