White’s is the most exclusive English gentlemen’s club.It was established in 1693 to sell hot chocolate, a rare and expensive commodity at the time.
The club is famous for its “betting book” in which members make bizarre gambles. The most famous of which is a 3,000 pound bet on which of two raindrops would slide down the window first. So why is this club on the list? Women are excluded completely from membership, so that is half our audience out. Secondly, men who want to join this exclusive club can only do so if invited by a sitting member who has the support of two other members.
Now its membership is reserved for the wealthiest and most influential members of society.
