Hortensio tells Petrucchio that Katharina is wealthy...... but she is a shrew.

Petruchio, shall I then come roundly to thee And wish thee to a shrewd, ill-favored wife? Thou’dst thank me but a little for my counsel; And yet I’ll promise thee she shall be rich, And very rich. But thou'rt too much my friend, And I’ll not wish thee to her.
