Wealth
To dream that you are possessed of much wealth, foretells that you will energetically nerve yourself to meet the problems of life with that force which compells success.

To see others wealthy, foretells that you will have friends who will come to your rescue in perilous times.

For a young woman to dream that she is associated with wealthy people, denotes that she will have high aspirations and will manage to enlist some one who is able to further them.
