I'm pretty sure Beacon provides all of the necessities to its students, considering that it is a boarding school, and all Weiss loses is the extra income to pay for things in town, and possibly her dust supply, but considering that she brought several briefcases on the first day, I think she's covered for a long time. Furthermore, Winter came off to me as expressing actual concern for Weiss, and while she probably is setting Weiss against her father to see what would happen, I think its so Weiss takes a different path than she presumably took, since Winter went to Atlas Academy like Mr.Schnee wished and joined the Atlas Special Ops. Finally, Winter is not ENCOURAGING Weiss to feel shame as much as she is reinforcing the shame Weiss always feels about relying on her father. So therefore, I think she wants her sister to strike out, rebel against her father, and learn more about herself and grow more than Winter ever could.
