Outside of the few guys who have connections through mommy and daddy I really doubt that even the more well to do Millennials and Zers are going to want to fork over thousands of dollars just to go hob nob with some snooty ass people.

I dunno. I've never been, but they seem like quite good fun. But yeah, they might not survive, especially since millennials are kinda poor.

They seem like dens of the boring to me. A bunch of snooty old men and "Real Housewives" types that sit around and celebrate how privileged they are.

I'm sure some younger adults that wear boating shoes and grew up in the lap of luxury are still into country clubs, but I really doubt a lot of our generation even care.

No but I think pretend wealth will. People who pay more than they can really afford just to be seen at a country club

They pay more than they can afford to play golf on a nice course, it has little to do with the mingling.

Yeah there are young rich millennials, but I think for the most part they don't have those kind of interests unless they were already growing up in a country club culture (i.e. had rich parents instead of being more self-made).

Not something as stupid as a country club membership to go hob nob with the who's who of the future Republican voters of the next election.

Maybe some will, but I doubt it'll be widespread like it was in the previous generation. I think people don't care about looking cool and exclusive at a golf course surrounded by rich housewives

You haven't spent much time around poor people, have you? Stupid pretty much defines their existence.

"Pretend wealth" isn't going anywhere, but those people are increasingly not spending that money on country clubs since they're not exactly great selfie opportunities.
