I mean i want to be invited to high end parties at nice clubs and hotels but my life is about local bars and dining at a friends house.

You want to get invited to these so called "high end" parties as some tag-along nobody because you sort-of kind-of know someone who's organizing those events? To get invited to that kind of thing, you really ought to do it on your own merit, or no one will care about you.

What's this obsession with meeting random women at clubs?

It's called networking, dude. Half the time it's about who you know.

Let me get this straight, networking is now "meeting people to use them for improving the quality of clubs to which you get invited"?

lol you're clueless

And what's wrong with knowing people that know the hot spots ? Networking opens doors. Not just for clubs but to meet people you wouldn't normally.

You can learn about "hot spots" on the Internet these days. Surprise?

And networking won't open shit unless you actually have value to offer to the other party, which is a dubious assumption in this case, don't you think?

Lol, really man ? Knowing the right people will be worth it in the end. And everyone has something of value to give. They just have to figure out what that is and adapt it to the situation. You can't read articles and newsletters forever Auto, you're going to have come into contact with the real world sometime.
