Here is a fascinating infographic: it shows what constitutes (for sane, normal folks) a good life in our once-great republic. Costs sure have gone up!

So, yeah, some dreams are more costly than others, although, for my funeral, you can just leave my corpse in the lobby of the Eccles Building, just for the lulz.
