There's loads of people who pay insane membership prices(sometimes a lot more than $1000/month!) just to be members of an exclusive country club where they know only similarly wealthy individuals are allowed. The only thing that is surprising about this social network to me is that it took this long for someone to get the idea.

Like, every golf course here in Shenzhen, which the lowest cost deal for a membership is over $100,000 USD for the entry-level membership, and if you want access to the elite courses, you're going to pay more than $350,000 initial fee to join. After meeting this initial fee hurdle, then you get to pay the monthly maintenance fees ~$1000 USD and also additional green fees on the weekends, if you didn't buy in at the highest level. There is definitely a market for real life premium social clubs but I'll be suprised if it translates to an app.

Except that the country club is local and with a bouncer at the entrance. You know who you are dealing with.

Showing oneself on the internet to anyone is not really comparable. How long before your identity and all your pictures on NewSocialPlatform are available on the internet and on google search?
