I don't understand how people can possibly pay those prices!

No way average Joe can swing that! I damn sure can't and honestly wouldn't even if I had the money to throw away.

I know a guy that got caught trespassing on a VERY large club about 20 years ago, his fine and court cost were less than 1/6th of what members of the club pay yearly. He paid his fine and as he walked past the " private game warden" who oversees the land on his way out he smiled and told him " Well it took 10 years and you getting tons of help to catch me and I'm still about $59,000 to the good! See ya next weekend! "
