It is a typical desperate dream, where the very desireable prize is right in front of you but you are somehow completely paralyzed or handicapped and can't close the deal. Usually this is a sexual dream, but since you are old ...

But seriously, I have similar dreams. I.e. a hunting situations where a big buck, bear, pig etc. steps out and I have my rifle but the wrong caliber ammo etc.

There must be info you can search on google for these type of disappointment dreams. I don't believe in deeper dream meanings, so l think it isn't worth dwelling on it ...
