Ah! First I thought it was plans for himself. Now it appears that it's plans about the two of you.

So if I understand you correctly, you were interested, but waited for him to do it. I'm not surprised that nothing happened then. If he's planning for the two of you, and you don't do anything, why should he finish/do it all alone?

Imagine a friend telling you things like "Soon, we're starting something big. You and me won't have to work jobs, we'll have this and that going on. I'm going to do this, you'll do this and everything will be amazing. I can see it now."

Well, if I imagine a friend telling me such a thing, it's clear to me that he expects us to work together on that. He wants to share these projects with you, not do everything for you.

So I was like "Oh yeah? Sign me up, hell yes."

"oh yeah?" == mistrust.
"sign me up" == "I won't do anything on my own. I wait for others to do it".

What I'm seeing is your lack of activity. You're completely passive. You're not in the slightest committed to these projects. Honestly, if I had an idea involving a friend of mine, and he says yes, but with your obvious lack of enthusiasm and activity, I wouldn't put any effort in the project either. That would be wasted energy, since he would have to do everything for the two of you and motivate you additionally.

Maybe he's trying to get you motivated with his long enthusiastic speeches? How about becoming active? Visualizing with him? Talking about the project? Take concrete action towards the goal? YOU?
