Answer:
A short saying like an adage or proverb would be easier to remember than the entire story.
1 is grammatical but 2 is supposed to read as "I am not so rich in the present" not "at present" and 3 is fine.

Hope that helps :^)
Unclear question. I infered you are referring to the grammatical structure/usage of some expressions in the sentence.
Answer:
It is an Idiomatic expression.
Explanation:
The expression "following the crowds" is idiomatic, meaning It should be understood figuratively.
In a sense, as used in this context it implies there's a price for doing whatever others do pertaining to how long they cook. So one must maintain his own cooking time schedule not following the crowd.
