There is a term for what just happened to my thread.

What do the bathrooms look like?

What % of gross income are people dropping on the fees?

Mine would be less than 2% at current income level, if I do the full membership with golf. Probably less than 1% if I skip on the golf membership. Seems reasonable.

Long Island clubs are, generally speaking, really hurting for members. Just know the year 3 price will be a multiple of year 1.ETA: is there a food/beverage minimum? That's the other hidden aspect.

Good question, I don't know. I don't think this is a super swanky or exclusive one -- some of my wife's friends in our age group (probably young-ish for these places) are members, so I don't think it's super expensive by comparison to others. But yeah, there could be some other stuff built in.

Truthfully, I could do without the golf, and do without the uppity rich folks -- I just really like the idea of a nice pool and beach with food service and stuff for the kids to do. Basically, I just want a pass to get drunk by the water on a Saturday.

The club I go work at as an attendant.

That's more like it.

I guess it would be a great summer job. Work on a lake, lots of rich girls, good tips, etc. When I was in high school, I worked at a 5 star resort for the general manager. Basically, I was paid a lot of money to run errands, play golf, and meet girls.

Hand towels, etc. The locker room is totally different story.

I'm not.
