List a dream of yours that you'll likely never see come to fruition due to financial restraint..

For the most part you can accomplish anything you want if you put your mind to it. However there's going to be things that get in your way, whether it's physical restraint, mental restraint, etc etc etc...
It's always been my dream to race a motorcycle in the Dakar rally. Ever since I was kid rippin dirt bikes through the forest I've always wanted to take it to the top and ride what's debatably the worlds most dangerous race.
Could I do it? Most likely not let's be hones LOL But I've been riding a motorcycle since I was 6 years old. It's a passion of mine and something I like to think I do well. I raced motocross for 2 years until, it became too much financially to support. For the same reason I'll likely never even see myself cross the start line for the Dakar, despite it being one of my top dreams, I'll simply never be able to afford the motorcycle needed, the time off work and away from my responsibility, etc etc.. I don't doubt that I have the drive or the ambition or the love for the sport to take part; I just seriously doubt that, short of winning the lottery I'll ever have the finances to make that dream come true.
It's a pretty big bummer to think something as silly as money will prevent me from even attempting to achieve one of my dreams. 
How bout you guys? Got any dreams you'll likely never see come true due to financial restraint?

Being able to sit (or walk around) , everyday, outside in a large city that speaks a foreign language and just listen/people watch or start to make small talk with the people there. I would enjoy learning a language this way. But of course, I can't do this, as I'd need to work.

Owning a boat, maybe one day but it will take a lot of work and saving.
A giant greenhouse, like huge and preferably metal and glass. To the point I could grow tropical trees and live inside it if I wanted.
Owning a concert venue, a smaller one would be more doable but I would love to own or rent a nice sized one. Or start my own festival.
Having my own music studio, I will probably make it happen eventually but once again it will take a lot of work and saving.
Starting a commune, city or country obviously a commune is the most realistic but starting a town or country has always seemed awesome to me.
That is what comes to mind, there is definitely a lot more though. Like living in space or on a different planet

Yeah most of mine were more temporary things, I know a lot of people with huge greenhouses but none are glass and all were pretty expensive anyways.

Holodeck as it exists on Star Trek. I'm sure it could be done if I had the money to fund the research into it. However I imagine that would probably be billions or trillions of dollars.

Yea I want my fucking pilots license!!! But it's cheap all things considered. I can do it for $8,000 in Canada. Both my dad and my grandfather are pilots so it's something I really want to do also. And it's totally in my reach!!

I would like very much to make my own village. Not a true commune, but like on a large, fairly remote piece of land, have a bunch of smaller plots which share things like communal gardens, communal sauna and gazebo and workshop and such, with huge shared gardens and growing space. Like a commune but with personal boundaries and separate living quarters, geared towards my friends and family specifically. Or just really awesome gardens in general. I love gardens so much they're honestly my number 1 reason for wanting to eventually own property, so that I can have an awesome garden. Seeing as I want to be a novelist though, such grand plans are unlikely

i wanna build a themed water park.

Or an outdoor go-cart racetrack.
Those would be fun. But sadly cant afford them

I was having a dream, met this guy in my hometown, that i met somewhere else. I said, hey i know you we met in Sf trippn. Later we go someplace and he hamds me 3 doses of L. Got excited. I left it somewhere, and he gave me another 3. I got excited and ate it right there. Then i became lucid, realizing its only a dream. I got disapointed, jumped out of the lucid state back into the dream being in control. I out my other 3 strips in this machine that will let me get them when i wake.

I want to start a village that resembles the shire from lord of the rings, preferably in New Zealand. I'd live off the land and enjoy a life of simplicity aswell as all the luxuries of being a hobbit. Take the occasional adventure; maybe down a couple mushrooms once in a while and chill with Gandalf and watch him do cool shit with magic.
Oh yea this thread was about Finnancial boundaries.....

Oh I've been to incredible places in my dreams; places so beautiful that they don't even exist on earth.
One time when I was like 6, I dreamed it was Halloween morning and was in this insanley awesome hilly village, with homes in the ground (kind of like the shire lol). It was like a neighborhood, as in there were homes on each side of the road, but everything was natural; in the middle was a dirt road, and the houses were built into the hills on each side; and growing on top the hills were stunning Autumn trees. The sun was so bright and beautiful and every tree literally looked perfect, the colors of these trees man omg it was seriously like a beautiful fall painting. The most stunning landscape ever I swear god.
I looked and ran around that amazing place for like 20 minutes, then I remember it slowly turning to dusk and seeing trick or treaters start walking my way, and they just looked so friendly. Then I woke up to my gloomy reality.
Thanks for reminding me of that, that memory always makes me feel so happy , but at the same time sad; that I'll never see anything like it again.

There is so many things I guess it would be to just do whatever I wanted whenever I wanted to do it. instead of wanting to do one thing and having to save for that one thing and hopefully nothing goes wrong to where I'd have to dip in my savings and that one thing is gone

I would have said going to space, but now we have commercial space flight for around $250,000 so it's becoming more of a realistic possibility.
So, I guess most unrealistically, a number of astronomical experiments that involve technology we don't have yet and if we did, would cost more than I'll likely ever see. E.g. Trying to melt Pluto, somehow creating a force of mass enough to disrupt/alter gravitational orbits of celestial bodies and cause things like interplanetary collisions, trying to provoke supernovas in distant galaxies (also requires some method of efficient intergalactic travel, many times the speed of light, or wormholes or something) but it'd be cooler than a fireworks show.
If we could travel at those speeds and create wormholes we'd also be able to time travel.
The other day on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert I heard Elon Musk mention dropping nukes over the poles of mars to induce the greenhouse effect so that it might work as a beginnings of terraformation, he might have been joking about that method, but it sure sounds like fun.

not so out of reach... it can be done... but rally racing professionally. becoming a therapist that uses psychedelic-assisted therapy. traveling all over the world, giving gifts to random poor strangers. flying in the cockpit of a jet-fighter (f-16, f-22 my DREAM)
