Read a requirement as the organization's published floor, not as a promise. A revenue test may have alternative versions for different business types, chapters can set stricter local tests, and invitation-only bodies publish criteria that describe members rather than admit them.

Sponsor required
Not documented by the organization or a source we could verify
Selectivity

Primary audience
The club states no eligibility test. It describes its purpose as existing "to enrich people's lives through meaningful connections" and its history page identifies its 1913 refounders as leading Detroit citizens, many of them automobile industry figures.
Typical member
Not publicly disclosed. The club publishes no data on member professions, ages or numbers, and its public site has no membership section at all.
