Default Private Club

I was asked to join a private club in the area. Joining fee plus an annual. I've never been interested in this type of thing, to be part of some "in crowd". I just don't see any real benefit.

That's kinda what I was thinking.

Years ago I had a developer client that sent his kids to an expensive private school and I asked him why- the school district we were in was excellent. He said it was so he could have access to the wealthy parents.

I don't need the access.

generally speaking, when someone is looking to get your money, it's not for your benefit.

No, it’s just a smiley I have in the picture album here. Not sure why you can’t see it. 😟

You joke, but one place I still want to visit is one of those Russian Bath houses where they strip you, beat you with evergreen branches, put you in a sweat box, then send you outside and rub your body down with snow, send you into a frozen lake, then back indoors for a hot oil massage and a steam bath.

YadKareNNN would happily hand over his wallet, then celebrate 50 years later when they got cancer.

If the club knew of Yadkin's celebrity status on car forums, no way would they charge him. They would pay HIM to join their group and add substance.
