Interest clubs. Interest clubs - addresses, phone numbers Interest clubs for successful men

We all know that selling something is much more difficult than giving it away for free. So maybe it's better to give it away for free?

He made more money from distributing his book for free than selling it directly. And why? But because instead of single sales, he received a thousand downloads of his book, on the pages of which he placed, in addition to the text of the book itself, advertisements for various casinos. And readers, clicking on the banners, increased his income in affiliate programs these casinos.

Another example. The cool business lady decided to organize a health group from her friends, colleagues and acquaintances at her leisure. They gathered once a week in the park, ran, did physical education, in general, had an interesting time. This lady, besides her business, was also fond of Herbalife. And with her hobby she infected her health group.

Now she has not only a health group, but also a huge structure of Herbalife distributors, and her monthly income from sales of this company's products and from leadership commissions is comparable to her income from her main business (which, by the way, is obtained by sweat and blood).

Third example. While looking for knitting courses on the Internet, I came across these in Israel. I was amazed at the price of the courses - something about $ 5 per month (the courses were conducted not via the Internet, but in an Israeli city). "What's so cheap?" - I was surprised. A forum participant (and also a resident of Israel) Rabinovich explained everything to me: the organizers of the courses have income not from teaching courses, but from selling to cadets Supplies: yarn, knitting needles, knitting books, etc.

Here is an example of a business for you: organize a club of interests, and when you bring together a lot of lovers of one thing (knitting, fitness, dogs), you will always find what to sell them.

For example, in 2002 I attended Norbekov's courses. Of those who went to them, a small group of amateurs was organized to learn more about their capabilities. How much money did we spend later on educational literature, which the course organizer brought us from Moscow ...

This is a fairly easy business (as it seems to me). Because:

1. Lovers of something are easy to collect (enthusiastic people like to communicate with their own kind).

2. They buy easily (amateurs are the nicest buyers, they don't look at the price tag, they buy because they are very interested or really need it).

3. They themselves will tell you what they need (if you don’t immediately realize). That is, even marketing research do not need to be carried out.

4. This is a business without much investment. The most you need is a meeting room (or just a lot). There are options here (own apartment, rent of premises, local park).

5. If the business takes place, but you do not pull it (or you get tired of it), there will always be someone from your amateur colleagues who will pick up your idea (amateurs are enthusiasts). Your club will be able to continue life without your participation.

There are many interesting things in the world. People are constantly interested in one thing or another. It is not surprising that for the sake of a better study of the subject of attention, interest clubs are born. At the same time, if a funny hobby of one person does not cause special attention, then the activities of a whole club of eccentrics are already in sight.

Such associations of people not only publicly demonstrate their adherence to habits, but may even put forward some demands. Freaks believe that in this way they will make others imbued with their ideas. We will tell below about the most unusual clubs by interest.

Club 13. In the English "Club 13" it is customary to break mirrors, sprinkle salt, light a cigarette from one match three of us. A community member will definitely open umbrellas on the premises. Omens are not scary for their colleagues from New York, where people certainly dine in the company of 13 black cats.

Bald club. The Bald Club was formed in Germany. It would seem, what claims can people who have lost their hair have against the authorities? The club's board, however, has formally asked the government to give free wigs to all those who have bald under 40. This will help people cope with hair loss more easily.

Doubles club. There is a Double Club in New York. To enter there, you need to meet simple requirements - to be like some kind of celebrity. As a result, the club has already gathered 7 Churchills and 11 Eisenhowers. It is hoped that the club is not accepted to conduct political disputes.

Pedestrian club. In the same New York, since 1964, there has been a Pedestrian Club. True, it consisted of only two people. Over time, both the president and the treasurer of the club purchased cars for themselves. As a result, society naturally ceased to exist.

Short people club. An unusual community exists in Spain. The Club of short people consists of 45 people. It is customary there to actively fight for the rights of its members. In particular, one of the tasks of the club is to provide all its members with permanent tickets to the theater for the first three rows.

Divorced Club. There is a Divorced Club in New York with a highly developed network of branches. In the country, the organization has branches in 30 other cities. In addition to providing psychological assistance the club also conducts legislative activities for the victims. He recently raised the issue of revising the divorce law. The members of the club did not like the part that allows the defaulters of alimony to be imprisoned.

Singles club. But in Holland there is an antipode - the Club of Bachelors. Over time, it was even reorganized into a political party. The club even decided to seriously fight for seats in parliament. An elegant campaign slogan was used: "Dutch bachelors consider their life an ideal form and are ready to fight in the name of it!"

Professional losers club. The Professional Losers Club was established in London. His first meeting was attended by booed actors, unrecognized artist geniuses, unknown musicians and lawyers who did not save their clients from execution.

Mother-in-law protection club. In Argentina, people have united in the Mother-in-law Protection Club. Today there are already 137 members. All of them are exemplary sons-in-law who cannot tolerate resentment towards the mothers of their wives.

A club of husbands oppressed by their wives. For more than 70 years in England, there has been a glorious Club of Husbands, oppressed by their wives. Thousands of men are secret admirers of the organization, but only 40 people are officially in it. At one of the last conventions in Yorkshire, only half of the members arrived. The rest of the letters and telegrams explained the reason for the absence very simply: "My wife did not let go."

You, of course, know that we all live in the "matrix" and get stuck in gray sticky metro-weekdays. And you always have a choice: you can sadly drag home a string bag with cabbage in the evenings, or you can confidently walk where everyone understands that you are the "chosen one." Yes, yes, if you didn't know yet, there are a lot of places in Moscow where you can find friends with the same interests. And we don't mean strip clubs at all. Here we are talking about real gatherings of kindred spirits.

If you want to be a kind of Moscow Neo, decide what your heart is and follow the Zoon's pointing finger.

Guys, stamps, 2 rubles

There is such a hobby - to collect money. Yes, not about bankers, but about numismatists. It is better for you to communicate with colleagues in collecting antique currency in a private setting - it is useless to walk around the metropolis with piastres. You can launch a paw into someone else's collection on Moscow Hobby Fair... This is if you are economical. Majors gather at the flea market on Taganka near the store "Numismatist"... You can find rare coins there, but you will have to pay more modern rubles for this than in licensed stores.

By the way, the philatelists also shop right there. Look for stamps for reasonable money from supporters of this centuries-old hobby in the sports complex in Luzhniki (entrance 10). And one of the largest metropolitan places where people worship a postage stamp is TC "Moskvorechye"... There are simply monsters of philately who will explain to you how to read the history of an entire country on a simple piece of paper.

Catch up in 60 seconds

Teenage delight, the pedal all the way, the squeal of brakes and the smell of burnt tires - all this unites those people who periodically arrange noisy gatherings in the restaurant "Village Pub" at VDNKh. If you are aiming for street racers or are fond of drifting, you will be gladly accepted into their noisy company. After a couple of non-alcoholic mojitos, show the class on your clunker at the site near the All-Russian Exhibition Center - everyone does it there. And if you need a real drive, then you will find it on the Sparrow Hills near the Church of the Life-Giving Trinity (Kosygina St., 30). Just remember that your chosenness is not a reason to dismiss traffic rules. Otherwise, you will have to spend time in a completely different society and place.

I'm a simple poet Kukushkin

Do you go around with red eyes all the time because you gaze at the stars all night? Are you contemptuous of office plankton? Can you match at least 10 rhymes to the word "tow"? "Yes, you, my friend, a poet!" Brothers in the pen you will meet in FAQ cafe... This is the very place where the atmosphere is so underground that you are drawn to howl on stage after a couple of glasses of the signature cocktail of the same name. True, the muse does not come here for free - on average, you will have to pay 1000 rubles or more for inspiration.

Well, the real den of the metropolitan bohemia is the club-cafe Schwein... The metropolitan poetry from the PALITra society gathers here. You will have to pay 250 rubles for the entrance, but beginners are allowed not only to perform, but also to take part in the competition. Similar evenings are held in cafes "Sivka-Burka"... Here you can not only read your poems, but also sing them with a guitar. Creative revelry will cost you about 1,500 rubles.

Ay nid help

For a long time you wanted to explain to foreigners over a glass of little white that we don't have any bears, balalaikas and vodka? Dreams come true at language exchange parties as part of the Anti-boring Moscow project on Saturdays in a cafe-restaurant MyBar and in the bar Standard... Both Europeans and Asians gather here. By the way, practice shows that at the bar, language barriers are erased as quickly as lipstick on a date.

But we are not foreigners, so they get tired of the "Friday - Moscow is sausage" rhythm and alternate dances with decorous conversations in anti-cafe Time Club "Shelter"... Here you can watch a movie with them or play a board game. If you leave at least 1,500 rubles in bars, then anti-cafe will cost you from 1 rubles. per minute.

Chest in chains, legs in flippers

Do you think the best rest is a healthy sleep on an active volcano? People who will support you spend their free time from the volcano at the bar "Weather forecast"... Here you will meet extreme lovers of all stripes: parachutists, surfers, snowboarders, and other "ists", except perhaps for masochists. Reckless people are resting watching a video filmed at the bottom of the ocean, or at a bird's-eye view, or in the crater of the same volcano.

And sometimes they want to twitch to rock, and then they go to the club "Top Bar"- a place for those who wanted to spit on boring ordinary life. Here, rockers and bikers usually shake them, so you can brag and come on an iron horse - there is where to park it. And real rock concerts take place in Hard rock cafe... Here you can take a look at things that once belonged to famous musicians. According to the price tag, all three establishments are approximately the same - in the evening you will be poorer by at least 1,500 rubles.

Tell your friends

It is difficult to find a hobby club for women, especially when it comes to middle-aged women. Most believe that hobby clubs exist only for retirees, and not every woman can recognize herself as an old woman. As a result, a middle-aged woman is left on the sidelines of life, she has nowhere to go, and nowhere to communicate. After all, not everyone loves sports, and can go to fitness clubs, and women become depressed.
Recently, it is depression that has become the scourge of our time. At 40-50 years old, a woman is already written off from accounts, she has no future and all active life in past. The woman remains truly completely isolated from life. One could go alone to a museum, to the theater, or to the cinema, but a lonely woman in such places immediately catches the eye. She catches sympathetic or judgmental glances on herself, and good mood immediately disappears. Everyone needs company, and hobby clubs in the women's library are a way to make friends, brighten up your leisure time, or learn something new.
Although Moscow lags behind in terms of cultural leisure for adults, the clubs of interest at libraries are growing every day. And in them not only the biography of Pasternak is discussed, or creative evenings of novice poets are held (although not without this), real centers of creativity are created on the basis of libraries. Women, and men too, can learn to dance, sing, work on a PC, or cross-stitch here. Let's review what the library-based clubs offer in the capital.
Library named after F.M. Dostoevsky
Chistoprudny Boulevard, 23

The Dostoevsky Library at all times was considered modern, and it remains so now. Meetings with interesting people, trainings, seminars and travel in the footsteps of the heroes of the books. A good place to discover something new and find like-minded people. Take a fresh look at old things. Basically, Dostoevsky's library will be of interest to lovers of classical literature.
For connoisseurs of photography, it is worth taking a look at the Photo Library in Artplay, at:
Lower Syromyatnicheskaya 10, building 8, floor 2.

In addition to exhibitions, the library offers courses on teaching the art of photography, seminars and meetings with famous photographers... Or, you can just look at photo albums, have a cup of tea, and chat with like-minded people.
If you are not interested in photography and you love movies, you simply have to go to their library. Eisenstein, at:
st. Karetny Ryad, 5/10, building 2

In addition to a huge collection of films, the library contains a lot of interesting literature concerning cinema, actors and everything that at least somehow relates to cinema. Creative evenings with interesting guests are regularly held.
Music lovers settled in the former house of the merchant Nosov
on the street Electrozavodskaya st., 12, bldg. 1.

Have you listened to music recorded on gramophone records for a long time? Go to the music library, and surely among the 60 thousand records you will find what you like. In the Music Library, you can not only listen to music, but also play on musical instruments find out their history, or even get to a mini-concert that takes place in the library on a regular basis.
There are people who love to tell stories, but nobody listens to them. If you are a storyteller or listener, write down the address:
Shooting lane, 5, bldg. 3

The Urban History Library is located here. You can tell stories about the past, dream up about the present, and fantasize about the future. Each story becomes a topic of discussion, and this place is ideal for visionaries and storytellers.
Can't you talk? Do you want to learn? Go to the Russian State Library.
on the street B. Cherkizovskaya, 4/1.

for those wishing to learn to speak fluently not only in Russian, but also in foreign language... It is easy conversations that help to better understand the culture of another country, and make it easier to learn languages.
There are clubs for board game lovers or those who want to explore the world of finance. These are clubs for men and women of any age and social status. You just need to find an interesting place.
By the way, fans of board games live in the library of M. A. Svetlov.
on the street Sadovaya-Kudrinskaya, 23.

Tournaments are regularly held there in various board games, and the names of some of them, I have not even heard.
If we proceed from the traditional idea of what a hobby club for middle-aged women means, of course, the first thing that comes to mind is a knitting circle, or the choral singing of ditties to the accordion.
There are those too, and detailed list such library clubs can be obtained from the Directorate Social protection your area. The authorities are seriously concerned about leisure for pensioners, and such clubs are arranged in almost every library. Finding a hobby club for middle-aged women is a little more difficult, but I sketched out a rough list.
If you're bored at the weekend, or dreary in the evening, don't stay at home. After all, in these clubs the same women and men as you are waiting for you. Perhaps there you will find your kindred spirit, and a simple acquaintance will continue far beyond the club. You just need to drop the blues and leave the house.
