When you add up the membership fee, offer fee, transportation, meals, hotel costs, and allowance, it easily comes to well over ¥100,000. You could go to a high-end soapland twice for that.

My wife made fun of me for it.
What do you all find valuable about being part of a club?
I don’t understand why you’re comparing it to a soapland.
Are you the kind of person who compares a soapland to your wife, too?
(Like, which one costs less?)
Most people wouldn’t do that.
I think you should take a little more time to consider what a dating club actually is.

High-end soaplands provide essentially the same service regardless of who the customer is.
The decisive difference is that many of the women you meet through a dating club won’t enter into an adult relationship with just anyone.
Personally, I value the opportunity to date women I would never be able to meet in my everyday life, such as flight attendants or actresses.
If your only goal is intimacy, I think you’d get better value by going to a high-end soapland rather than using a dating club.

They’re completely different things. They only have value to people who feel that way.
If you also calculate the time based on the questioner’s perspective:
Even 15 minutes of sex through a dating club can be extremely satisfying. If you calculate a luxury soapland visit as 120 minutes, then it’s eight times more expensive, isn’t it? Twice that would make it 16 times as much.
Since they’re different things, you could say the difference is more than infinite, because one has something the other doesn’t.
Another appealing thing about dating clubs is that you can enjoy meeting even without having sex.
P.S.
Even though they’re different, some women can do both dating clubs and sex work, and some men enjoy both as well. Some people of either gender are better suited to one or the other, while others can only do one of them... Generally speaking, your wife’s point is reasonable and correct. But once you understand that, people who are drawn to it will get hooked without hesitation.

For me, a hundred-something thousand yen probably feels about the same as 1,500 yen did when I was younger, so I really don’t know how to answer when someone talks about it like it’s a huge amount of money and asks, “Is it really worth that much?”
Put another way, I don’t feel much difference between buying a 150-yen rice ball at a convenience store and spending a hundred-something thousand yen on a date. I’m serious.
When you buy a convenience-store rice ball, you don’t think, “Is this rice ball really worth 150 yen?” You just buy it because you’re hungry. Making an offer on Uni and going on a date is the same—I do it because I want to.
Even when I’m buying something for around 15 million yen, I don’t really think about whether it’s worth it. If it were around 150 million yen, I might give it some thought.
Maybe the person asking is a little too broke to be playing around with dating arrangements?

For me too, it’s about dating women I wouldn’t normally have the chance to meet.
> My wife made fun of me for it.
Haha, I see（笑）
Well, it’s something my wife can’t do for me. People have plenty of things they can’t do depending on the time and place. I’m greedy, so I try my best to experience as many of them as I can（笑）

At a high-end soapland, women provide sex as part of their job. What I value about dating clubs is that women have the right to say no, and that it isn’t treated as a job.
Of course, money is involved at dating clubs too, but I see them as a place where it’s possible to bring genuine feelings into the relationship—something beyond money.
That said, I’ve gradually gotten the impression that more and more people, both men and women, approach it as a transactional relationship or purely as work.
If all you want is to have sex with a beautiful woman, a high-end soapland is definitely better value for money. I think that much is obvious.
