Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning SLM Stock In The Last 10 Years

Whoever said golf is a relaxing sport clearly never saw the initiation fees.
In a world where the phrase "exclusive club" doesn't just mean a tight handicap but a bank account that can survive a seven-figure swing, America's priciest golf clubs operate in a league of their own. These aren't just places to play 18 holes—they're private kingdoms where the greens are pristine, the member list <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44891213/joe-rogan-paints-a-picture-of-trump-in-between-golf-swings-hes-on-the-phone-with-other-presidents-were-going-to-need-more-money">includes billionaires and celebrities</a>, and you may need a yacht or private jet to show up in style.
Think your local muni is expensive at $80 a round? Some of these clubs make that look like loose change under the couch.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Sebonack Golf Club — Southampton, New York</h2>
Initiation Fee: $650,000 to over $1 million&nbsp;
Estimated Annual Dues: Not publicly disclosed
Located on 300 acres of waterfront in the Hamptons, Sebonack is the Rolls-Royce of American golf clubs. Designed by Jack Nicklaus and Tom Doak, it overlooks Peconic Bay with views almost as legendary as the layout itself. Membership is capped at 200, <a href="https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/business/story/2021-01-24/cbs-tv-station-deal-wlny-peter-dunn-sebonack">and it's invitation-only</a>—because apparently, a million bucks isn't enough if they don't like your swing…or your vibe.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. The Madison Club — La Quinta, California&nbsp;</h2>
Initiation Fee: $500,000
Estimated Annual Dues: Around $70,000
<a href="https://madisonclubca.com/">The Madison Club</a> is where A-listers, CEOs, and sports legends unwind between deals and rounds.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Liberty National Golf Club — Jersey City, New Jersey</h2>
Initiation Fee: $450,000–$500,000
Estimated Annual Dues: Around $29,000
You want Manhattan skyline views while draining a birdie putt? Liberty National delivers—plus a private marina if you prefer to arrive by boat. It's <a href="https://www.golfdigest.com/story/presidents-cup-2017-9-interesting-facts-you-should-know-about-the-construction-of-liberty-national">one of the most expensive golf clubs ever built</a>, with a reported $250 million price tag. The vibe? Wall Street meets Augusta, with modern luxury and top-shelf everything.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. Augusta National Golf Club — Augusta, Georgia</h2>
Initiation Fee: Rumored $250,000–$500,000
Estimated Annual Dues: Estimated $10,000–$30,000
Good luck getting in. Home of The Masters, Augusta <a href="https://www.golfmonthly.com/news/is-augusta-national-the-most-exclusive-golf-club-in-the-world">doesn't accept applications</a>—you get invited. Rumors about fees vary, but most agree that even if you could afford it, you're still not getting past Magnolia Lane unless they come to you. This is the crown jewel of American golf, steeped in tradition and tighter than Fort Knox when it comes to membership info.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. The Vintage Club — Indian Wells, California</h2>
Initiation Fee: Around $300,000
Estimated Annual Dues: $45,000
Known as the "billionaire's playground," The Vintage Club <a href="https://themunsellegroup.com/neighborhoods/the-vintage-club">is ultra-private</a>, ultra-posh, and surprisingly under the radar. Two top-ranked courses, an international roster of power players, and desert views that go on forever. If you've never heard of it, that's kind of the point.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">So…Worth It?</h2>
These clubs aren't just about the game—they're about access. Access to movers, shakers, private equity partners, and maybe the next person who'll invest $20 million in your startup between holes 9 and 10.
Whether that kind of membership makes sense comes down to your priorities—and your bank account. For some, it's about networking and prestige. For others, it's just an insane number to pay for golf, no matter how good the course is.
Either way, it's safe to say most players are perfectly content with a solid muni, a reliable foursome, and maybe a breakfast sandwich at the turn. You don't need a seven-figure initiation fee to enjoy the game—but if you've got it, you've got options.

A new movie about OpenAI has cast the role of Elon Musk. While Musk could probably care less if you watch that movie that might not portray him in the best light, a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/11/35727504/elon-musk-biopic-is-coming-heres-who-will-be-tackling-the-worlds-richest-man-for-the-big-sc"> biopic based on Musk's life </a>is set to hit the big screen in the future and will be based off an approved biography on the world's richest man.
What Happened: Actor Ike Barinholtz is in talks to portray Musk in a movie about OpenAI titled "Artificial." The movie will also star Andrew Garfield as Sam Altman, as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/entertainment/25/06/45782841/sam-altmans-2023-openai-ouster-becoming-a-movie-could-former-spider-man-play-him">Benzinga previously reported.</a>
While the film will center on Altman's ouster and rehire by the board, it is also likely to explore Musk's early days with the company and his ultimate exit back in 2018 over disagreements about a for-profit structure of the company.
Past reports have said the film<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/entertainment/25/07/46601114/elon-musk-sam-altman-rivalry-to-come-alive-in-amazon-mgms-upcoming-film-artificial-with-ike-barinholtz-likely-to-play-musk-report"> may not portray </a>Musk in the best light using descriptions like "dictator" and villain.
While that movie won't center entirely on Musk, a future film from A24 will explore Musk and all things SpaceX, Tesla and X. The untitled film is set to be directed by Academy Award-nominated director Darren Aronofsky and is based on the book about Musk by Walter Isaacson.
Musk gave Isaacson tons of access to his life and companies and the author was even around the billionaire during the time period of the $44 billion acquisition of social media platform Twitter, which was renamed X.

<li>Stay in the know with our Insider Trades page — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/sec/insider-trades/">see when leaders like Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Jensen Huang are offloading their own shares.</a></li>
</ul>
Who Could Play Elon Musk?: The Aronofsky movie does not have a release date yet and has not currently cast the lead role of Musk.
With the news that Barinholtz is in talks to portray Musk on film, Benzinga asked Grok, the chatbot from Musk's X to look at potential options to portray the billionaire in the biopic.
"For the yet-to-be-released Elon Musk biopic based on the Walter Isaacson biography, who do you think should be cast as Elon Musk for the movie?" Benzinga asked Grok.
Grok said casting the right actor for Musk is "crucial" for the film and will need to make sure to portray his "complex personality, visionary drive and polarizing public presence."
"Here are a few actors who could compellingly portray Elon Musk, considering his intensity, eccentricity and multifaceted persona," Grok said.
The actors named were as follows, with portions of the reasoning Grok gave:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Christian Bale: His physical versatility and knack for embodying complex, high-energy personalities make him a strong fit to portray Musk's relentless ambition and enigmatic nature.</li>
<li>Rami Malek: Malek's ability to convey intensity and intellectual depth, as seen in &#8220;Bohemian Rhapsody&#8221; and &#8220;Mr. Robot,&#8221; could capture Musk's quirky charisma and visionary mindset. His expressive eyes and subtle mannerisms could reflect Musk's unpredictable public persona.</li>
<li>Cillian Murphy: Murphy's piercing intensity and ability to play cerebral, enigmatic characters (&#8220;Peaky Blinders,&#8221; &#8220;Oppenheimer&#8221;) align well with Musk's introspective yet commanding presence. He could effectively portray Musk's blend of genius and volatility.</li>
<li>Adam Driver: Driver's range and ability to portray driven, larger-than-life figures (&#8220;Marriage Story,&#8221; &#8220;Star Wars&#8221;) make him a compelling choice. His physicality and emotional depth could bring out Musk's relentless work ethic and personal struggles.</li>
</ul>
"Each of these actors could bring a unique angle to Musk's character, emphasizing different facets of his life — whether it's his entrepreneurial zeal, personal controversies, or futuristic vision."
Grok ultimately picked Bale as the standout actor to play Musk given his "ability to fully immense himself in complex roles."
Benzinga also asked Grok to list potential actors based on Musk's appearance and physicality. For this question, Grok named Bale, Malek and Murphy once again and replaced Driver with Edward Norton.
Grok said that Norton has "a lean build, angular face, and intense eyes" that could resemble Musk. Ultimately, Grok picked Murphy for the closest "natural resemblance" to Musk with Bale coming in a "close second."
Interestingly enough, Norton <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/22/12/30206148/elon-musk-now-the-subject-of-a-fictional-movie-character-a-weird-relevance-in-exactly-the-c">played technology billionaire</a> Miles Bron in Netflix movie "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery." Movie director Rian Johnson previously said that the movie character, who was interested in space exploration and automotives in the film, may have been inspired by Musk.
Malek previously won an Academy Award for portraying Queen frontman Freddie Mercury in the "Bohemian Rhapsody" biopic.
From Iron Man to Elon Musk?: Actor Robert Downey Jr. played Iron Man/Tony Stark across many Marvel Cinematic Universe films.
Downey's portrayal of Stark in the films was said to be inspired by Musk and the billionaire<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/education/25/06/46157568/happy-birthday-elon-musk-54-facts-and-figures-about-tesla-spacex-ceo-on-his-54th-birthday"> even earned a cameo</a> in "Iron Man 2."
Benzinga asked Grok if Downey Jr. could be up for playing Musk on film.
"Yes, Robert Downey Jr. could convincingly transition from playing Tony Stark to portraying Elon Musk in a film," Grok said.
Grok said Downey Jr. has experience with similar roles, such as Iron Man, a physical resemblance to Musk, similar charisma and the actor's ability to take on "complex, real-life figures" like Charlie Chaplin.
The challenge for Downey as Musk, according to Grok, would be difficulty for the audience to differentiate Downey playing Stark and Downey playing Musk and an age difference.
Why It's Important: Playing Musk on film could be the opportunity of a lifetime for an actor. As the world's richest man and most followed person on X, Musk has a wide platform and is influential on getting his fans to do certain things.
Support for the movie and the actor cast as himself, Musk could help boost the box office of the film.
After giving access to Isaacson, the film is likely to be less controversial than others exploring Musk and is likely to receive the billionaire's support.
Isaacson authored &#8220;Steve Jobs&#8221; in 2011, which was turned into a biopic. The movie starred Michael Fassbender in the title role and was released in 2015, four years after Jobs&#8217; death.
The film was nominated for Best Actor and Best Actress (Kate Winslet) Academy Awards. &#8220;Steve Jobs&#8221;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt2080374/?ref_=bo_se_r_1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">grossed&nbsp;</a>$17.8 million domestically and $34.4 million worldwide.

A woman from Montana called into &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MG6d5Ialpb0">The Ramsey Show</a>&#8221; with a story that left hosts Dave Ramsey and Rachel Cruze shocked and frustrated. She&#8217;s a nurse who had maintained a steady career while her husband <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/most-profitable-real-estate-business-ideas">pursued real estate full time</a>. In 2021, they earned enough money that they owed $82,000 in taxes. The money was available in her husband's business account. She trusted him to handle it. He didn't.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">He Spent The Tax Money Behind Her Back</h2>
Instead of paying the IRS, her husband secretly used the money on a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/02/36925237/nearly-half-of-americas-real-estate-brokers-had-trouble-making-rent-in-late-2023-does-that-make-this">failed business venture</a>. He ignored their certified public accountant's repeated attempts to reach him and even hid IRS notices from her. The couple&#8217;s CPA eventually filed the taxes without signatures in early 2023 just to avoid penalties.

She only found out when she signed for a certified letter: the IRS now intends to levy their home over a $150,000 debt. "I feel blindsided and betrayed," she said. Now she's considering <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-get-equity-out-of-your-home-without-refinancing">taking out a second mortgage</a> or selling the home to get out of the mess, even though she's planning to divorce him.
Ramsey was direct: "No, I would not bail him out. I would bail us out if we are staying together."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is She On The Hook For His Taxes?</h2>
Ramsey said it sounds like the tax liability is tied entirely to the husband's business income. If she divorces him, she can likely file under the IRS's innocent spouse provision, which protects someone who didn't know about their partner's unpaid taxes or deceptive financial behavior.

"You would need a tax attorney or a great CPA that knows how to work that," Ramsey said. If the house is sold and she qualifies, the IRS would only be able to take money from his portion of the home.
But if she stays, the situation changes. "Then the two of you have got to reestablish some footing on trust and betrayal and lies and deception, and then put all of our income in one pile to clean up the mess that he made," Ramsey said.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Crisis Of Integrity</h2>
Ramsey connected the story to a broader lesson about wealth and character, referencing the late Tom Stanley, author of &#8220;The Millionaire Next Door&#8221; and &#8220;The Millionaire Mind.&#8221; According to Ramsey, Stanley found that billionaires shared one top trait: "fanatical levels of integrity."

"That would be the other end of the spectrum from the man in this email," Ramsey said. "Running the scheme, running a scam, trying to find a shortcut, trying to find a get-rich-quick thing. I&#8217;m making good money in real estate, but I still got a side hustle that&#8217;s screwing up. I find some way to burn money… That's the opposite of integrity."
But he added that it's not too late for her husband to change. "Integrity is a decision. He can just decide to be a man of integrity starting today. But if he doesn't, you got issues, sister."

What To Know: The FCC<a href="https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-413229A1.pdf"> granted</a> the necessary approvals to allow Paramount to complete its planned $8 billion merger with Skydance. 
The FCC approved license transfers for 28 local TV stations&nbsp;owned by CBS after Skydance pledged to hire an ombudsman&nbsp;to review complaints regarding bias concerns at CBS and to&nbsp;eliminate diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs.
"Americans no longer trust the legacy national news media to report fully, accurately and fairly. It is time for a change. That is why I welcome Skydance's commitment to make significant changes at the once storied CBS broadcast network,&#8221; FCC chairman Brendan Carr said in a statement.
&#8220;In particular, Skydance has made written commitments to ensure that the new company's programming embodies a diversity of viewpoints from across the political and ideological spectrum. Skydance will also adopt measures that can root out the bias that has undermined trust in the national news media.&#8221;
The approval comes more than a year after Skydance announced plans to acquire Paramount Global and its subsidiaries.
PARA Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/PARA">Paramount Global</a> shares were up 2.41% in after-hours, trading at $13.58 at the time of publication on Thursday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Wood will join the Company as president and CEO effective September 2, 2025. Dr. Reza Zadno will retire as president, CEO, and director effective September 1, 2025.
Since 2020, Dr. Zadno has led the Company through significant growth and commercial expansion, including adoption and utilization of Aquablation&#xAE; therapy for the treatment of BPH, the Company's successful 2021 public offering, and the start of clinical trials for the treatment of prostate cancer.
"On behalf of the board of directors, I want to thank Reza for his dedication to the Company and its mission over the past five years," said Thomas M. Prescott, PROCEPT BioRobotics chairperson. "Reza's deep understanding of the potential of the Company's novel technology to redefine the standard of care for BPH and steadfast leadership through key milestones have paved the way for even greater growth and opportunity ahead."
"The last five years have been among the most rewarding of my career and I am very proud of what our team has achieved," said Dr. Reza Zadno, PROCEPT BioRobotics president and CEO. "We grew the number of global Aquablation procedures from a few hundred to nearly one hundred thousand, raised more than $600M capital to support our continued growth, significantly increased enterprise value, and most importantly, we have changed the treatment landscape for patients suffering from BPH and the doctors who treat them. We are just scratching the surface of what's possible, and I am thrilled to pass the torch to Larry Wood to lead the next phases of the Company's exciting journey."
Mr. Wood is an accomplished executive leader with more than 40 years of experience in the medical technology industry at both Edwards Lifesciences and Baxter Healthcare Corporation. He is joining PROCEPT BioRobotics from Edwards, where he has served as corporate vice president and group president, Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement and Surgical Structural Heart, since 2023. Prior to that, he was corporate vice president, Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement and earlier in his career at Edwards, he held key positions in manufacturing management, regulatory affairs and strategic and clinical marketing, primarily in the company's leading surgical heart valve franchise. In 2024, he joined PROCEPT BioRobotics' board of directors and is a member of its audit committee. Mr. Wood has an M.B.A. from Pepperdine Graziadio Business School.
Mr. Prescott continued, "Larry's strengths and vast experience in the medical technology industry are a great fit with the opportunities ahead for PROCEPT BioRobotics. Larry has demonstrated outstanding leadership and business acumen in one of the most clinically demanding medical device product categories and is known for championing technologies that can significantly benefit patients. At Edwards, Larry and his team revolutionized how patients with severe aortic stenosis are treated. We are excited to have Larry join the Company as CEO, especially after having the opportunity to get to know him, his leadership style, and his insights during his tenure on the PROCEPT BioRobotics board."
"I am honored to join PROCEPT BioRobotics at such a pivotal time in the Company's growth," said Mr. Wood. "The Company's innovative approach to treating prostate disorders has the potential to transform the standard of care for patients worldwide. I look forward to leading this exceptional team and building on their many successes to continue to improve treatment outcomes for doctors and their patients."
In connection with today's announcement the Company is also pre-announcing second quarter of 2025 revenue of approximately $79.2 million.

<h3>Evaluating LTC Properties P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 71.15 in the Helath Care REITs industry, LTC Properties Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 18.4. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued.

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.
