Nah, buying things doesn't give you money. Not on the hacked version I've tried out anyway. It's convenient for catching very rare Pokémon, though. Like Snorlax or Lapras. Their health bar becomes red after the first hit, so the risk of accidentally killing the Pokémon (and having to spend another couple of hours going through the level to encounter it again) is much much lower.
