I do not know what you mean by the "court club" but if you we are independent contractors in the truest form of the definition, then to get instruction or training from folks in the industry, you will likely pay something for that. If you work as a Real Estate or Insurance Agent the company that you are working with is not paying for those kinds of trainings or materials either. I am sure you get post cards from someone trying to sell you a house or sell you some insurance, the likelihood the mailing was paid for by the agent and not the company that their name is on the top. If you want to get to a certain level, you pay for trainings. Not all camps are to be apart of a club. Also John Adams was at this training/camp and I can tell you from experience that John used to run camps for $50 every summer and he was at the time just a conference supervisor.

Peace
