There is a bunch of filtered communities for rich/influential people, like yacht clubs, golf clubs, country clubs, wef, etc. Often the main filter is the fact that the communities are not known to others, but of course many have a bunch of filters on top of that. Sometimes that filter is via money, like one cup of tea costing 50€. Sometimes that filter is via something that is distasteful to a large chunk of the population, like say many types of modern art: the fact that many frown at it is often times the point. Sometimes the filter is via requiring specific universities, like various alumni organizations of the ivy league (the main purpose of the ivies is the network, not even the quality of education, as there is many non-ivy schools with similarly good education). These clubs exist on all sorts of levels of rich people, but the filter does not have to be perfect. All the clients are looking for is a group of people that share relatable stories and problems, and maybe provide business opportunities.
