Question about English (US)
Megan Sinkins was sure her future would be wonderful when she went to Chicago (she'd be single, living in a mansion with at least fifty rooms, with pools and furniture that would cost the Earth, and, uh, this mansion would have to be facing the sea - yes, this would be a truly paradisiacal sight), however, a very handsome boy named Robert Galle would be the barrier for this whole dream to be realized (in Megan's mind). Does this sound natural?

A little unnatural
Megan Sinkins was sure her future would be wonderful when she went to Chicago. She'd be single, living in a mansion with at least fifty rooms, pools and furniture that would cost the Earth. Also, this mansion would have to be facing the sea; yes, this would be a truly paradisiacal sight. However, a very handsome boy, named Robert Galle, would be the barrier for this whole dream to be realized; in Megan's mind anyway.

@troik08 The order was good. I just made some modifications to the structure/grammar. Furniture that would cost the earth sounds a bit unusual. Overall it makes sense though.
