Why do folks have "dream" things like homes, cars, boats etc? Is anyone satisfied with what they have?

The wife and I have a joke it's - if a crook broke into our home they would probably feel sorry for us because we have no good stuff - like my TV is 20 years old my computer is an old dinosaur. Right now were listing to a battery powered radio that only gets one station but I'm satisfied with all of it. We do eat  well and my roof don't  leak so I figure I'm styling (living good). Cheers and happy weekend!

Having a "dream" thing doesn't necessarily mean you're not satisfied. A dream can be purely unrealistic fantasy. 

Why not? My dream home would be a decommissioned submarine permanently anchored at about 30' depth and having a couple of huge bay windows.

Nice peaceful and quiet. No lawn to have to mow...

The term "dream" is subjective.  I have a dream house - it's a 2-bedroom townhouse in PA where I will retire in a couple of years.  I have a dream car which is a Hyundai Elantra that gets me from Point A to Point B (exactly the same as a Lamborghini would but at a much lower price).  It's all a matter of how big (or how expensive) you dream.  The "dream" part is what will make you happy, which is not necessarily a mansion, a yacht or a very expensive car.

I have two or three things that are truly amazing......and I can tell you that in extremely satisfied by them..... Hehe. ;)p

 Speaking of 'Holmes', check out the Katie Holmes comic video that was evidently taken in a Sylvania, Ohio area home during a Thanksgiving celebration. Entitled 'Katie Holmes food coma'.

Yes.  I am.  I truly have more than I could ever need.
