The Process

Three Steps.
One Number That Changes Everything.

No pitch deck. No generic demo. A 30-minute session that produces one deliverable: your personal savings estimate, built around your actual routes, vehicles, hotels, and upcoming purchases.

◈

Reserve Your Slot

Pay $197 to secure your 30-minute session. Minimum 24 hours lead time so Kris can prepare your estimate in advance. The fee is credited in full toward membership if you join — net cost to you: $0.

◈

Complete Your Intake

A short form after booking asks about your travel frequency, vehicles, hotels, aviation, and one specific upcoming trip or purchase. Kris reviews this personally before the call — he arrives with your numbers already prepared.

◈

Receive Your Estimate

Kris walks you through exactly what your lifestyle costs at member rates — line by line. Emirates First Class at $5,200 instead of $34,680. St. Regis Aspen at $325 instead of $3,500. Your specific routes and purchases, priced at wholesale.

What This Is

Not sure if TUS applies to your life? This is where you find out.

Not a sales call.
A deliverable.

The question Kris hears most isn't "how do I join" — it's "does this actually apply to my life." That's what the estimate answers. Your routes. Your vehicles. Your hotels. Priced at member rates, before you commit to anything.

$9M documented across the network since 2019. He reviews every intake personally. He arrives with your numbers already prepared. The gap between what you pay and what you could pay isn't a wealth problem. It's an information problem. This session closes it.

What's Covered

Every Category.
Your Actual Numbers.

Kris covers every area where members consistently find the largest gaps between what they pay and what they could pay.

Private Aviation

Charter access through broker channels the public never sees. One member's Gulfstream IV-SP from Van Nuys to Fort Lauderdale: $148,500 retail. $2,795 member. Kris prices your actual routes.

Wholesale Vehicles

Same auction floors dealers buy from. A Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 acquired at $116,000 vs. $180,000+ MSRP. Exotic and luxury vehicles. Not available to the public.

III

Hotels & Suites

Direct relationships with Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis, Four Seasons. Ritz-Carlton Osaka: $412/nt retail. $174/nt member. Rates the public is never offered.

Luxury Goods

Private client allocations at Gucci, Balmain, and other houses. Pieces not on the floor, at rates below retail. Access is relationship-based. It either exists or it doesn't.

Business Credit & Finance

TUS lending partner access for vehicle financing and business credit facilities. Terms and structures unavailable through standard banking. Kris walks you through what applies to your situation.

Tax & Legal Structures

Alaska LLC registration eliminates sales tax on exotic vehicle acquisitions. One member saved $11,000 in California sales tax on a single purchase. Documented. Legal. Used consistently.

The Credit

The $197 you pay today is not a cost.
It is a deposit on a decision
you haven't made yet.

Net Cost If You Join

If you book the estimate and decide membership is not right for you, you keep the savings analysis. You paid for a deliverable, and you received one. If you join, the $197 comes off your first payment. Either way, you leave with more information than you arrived with.

“

Not a discount code platform. A dedicated concierge desk operating on direct vendor relationships built over years at the highest levels of the luxury world.

“

The ambition is to become what Buban calls “the Soho House of lifestyle optimization” — a private membership where luxury lifestyle access is not just purchased but orchestrated by people who know exactly how the system works.

“

The numbers are hard to dismiss. Members currently access private jet flights for $6,000 that list at $83,000. These are the result of relationships with brokers, operators, and hoteliers that cannot be replicated through a Google search.

Questions

The Ones
Everyone Asks.

Do I have to join TUS after the estimate?

No. The Access Estimate is a standalone paid service. You pay $197, Kris delivers a personalized savings analysis built around your actual lifestyle. If you decide to join, the $197 is credited in full toward your membership — net cost to you is $0. If you don't join, you keep the analysis. No follow-up pressure, no obligation.

Why does the estimate cost $197?

Because Kris reviews every intake personally and prepares a real savings analysis before each call — your specific routes, vehicles, hotels, and upcoming purchases, priced at member rates. That preparation takes real time. The $197 ensures every session is with someone who is genuinely evaluating membership, and it disappears entirely if you join. You are paying for a deliverable, not a conversation.

What does the estimate actually include?

A line-by-line savings analysis across every category relevant to your lifestyle: private aviation, wholesale vehicles, hotels and suites, luxury goods, business credit, and tax structures. Kris prices your specific upcoming trips and purchases at member rates and shows you the exact gap. One member's next charter flight was $148,500 retail. Member rate: $2,795. That is the kind of number the estimate produces.

How quickly can I get a slot?

Slots require a minimum of 24 hours lead time so Kris can review your intake before the call. Most people book 48 to 72 hours out. Availability is capped at 15 sessions per month to ensure Kris can prepare each one personally.

What if the numbers don't work for my lifestyle?

That's exactly what the estimate is designed to answer. If the savings don't apply to how you live, Kris tells you directly. He has no interest in selling a membership to someone it won't serve. You still leave knowing exactly where the network does and doesn't fit your life. Either answer is worth $197.

How do I know this is real?

The savings on this page are documented. Yaz's Gulfstream charter receipt exists. Shawn's BMW rental and Ritz-Carlton invoices exist. The Alaska LLC filings exist. Kris has been operating inside the M4LM private client network for seven years. The Upgrade Society has been active since 2019. If you want to verify before booking, the case study links on this page go deeper. The $197 also exists specifically so you can evaluate with zero risk — if the numbers don't apply to your life, Kris tells you that directly on the call.

Is this available outside the US?

Yes. TUS is active across five continents. Members in the US, UK, UAE, Australia, and Europe. The session is conducted via video call. The savings analysis applies regardless of where you're based.
