Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner have become members of the ultra-exclusive Indian Creek Country Club in Florida after purchasing a $30 million-plus lot there in 2020. The couple had faced initial resistance due to political tensions following President Donald Trump's tenure, but recent efforts like joining the governing board and attending members’ events helped them gain acceptance. Meanwhile, Jeff Bezos is still trying to secure membership despite owning substantial property on the island; he faces a notoriously lengthy and challenging process for admission to this club.
