It means nothing. Settle down.

It means you wanted to win the contest but didn’t achieve your goal. Take this experience forward and do what you need to do to increase your chances of wnning next time.

Wish fulfillment?

I have had dreams like that. It can be fun if you spend the money before you wake.
Sadly I do not think it has any real meaning.

It means you didn’t win. Get over it.

Well, a lot of dreams show what you want to happen, though not always at all. I remember a friend told me that he constantly had dreams about living in a big house and having a piano when in reality he lived in a dumpy apartment in a crime-filled gang-filled area with a bunch of people and never had access to a piano (he’s good at playing). In that case, it just seemed like the kind of dream that shows what you want to happen, but isn’t actually happening.

a little harsh, @avvooooooo

Hopefully you didn’t declare you’d win the contest simply because you dreamt so. (God forbid someone cry out “In your dreams!”)

A little truthful, @holden.

I’m shocked that you really are concerned about why your dream didn’t come true in real life. Have you ever actually had a dream that was real when you woke up? Why would this one be any different?

It means you’re no worse off, or better, than you were before you had the dream. The reality of it all basically amounts to nothing. Back to the real world.

When I have dreams like that, it usually means that I was over confident.

It’s just your mind making you realize how not awesome your life is. I had a dream once that I won a 1.3 million dollar bet on a boxing match and I thought it was real. When I woke up, I was just really sad. Stupid mind.

It means you didn’t win.

It means you have better luck asleep than you do awake.
