Last week, I have learned something about private clubs in my hospitality management class. In China, what private club means to me is where only rich people can get in. However, I have learned there are many kinds of private clubs actually. For example, there are city clubs, country clubs, equity clubs, and yacht clubs. Every club has its own rules and requirements for joing in the club.
After joing in these private clubs, people would get profit in some ways. Just as the members of some famous brands, you would know when the private sale is and get some cheaper stuff than others.I think the private clubs in the Unite States are better than those in China. In chinese, many peopl join some private clubs in order to show off in front of others. They think it's a symbol of richness. However, in the United States, most of the people join in the private clubs since they have similar interests, and they could communicate about their interests more if they are together in one club. Although many of them are rich, they don't join the club for showing off.
As learning about the knowledge about hospitality management, I also learned the differences between China and US. It's cultural difference and also humane diffeence. I think courses are always have something to do with one coutry's cultures.
Well, I also thought the private clubs are only for riches. Like golden members for the hotels or star alliance, frequently you contribute certain amounts of money to that host, then you can have the membership. if you don't have the money, you will lose some opportunity offers in the private club.
