    Significant as in “useful for everyday life”? Zero.

    … or as in “useful for anything else”? Then maybe 20% or so. I’m an avid roleplayer and sometimes, a particular dream can be the inspiration for a plot, character or story.

    But mostly I feel that dreams are the IRL equivalent of animated screensavers. They don’t have to make sense as long as there is something on the screen while the CPU is idle.
