Today, over 100 masters of the universe will assemble at the swanky Grove hotel in Watford, England for one of the most clandestine and controversial meetings in the world — the Bilderberg Conference.
Bilderberg has been around for almost 60 years, bringing together the most powerful people in the United States and Europe.
From CEOs to political bigwigs, it's an opportunity for the global elite to gather every year and have an open dialogue about world affairs, no reporters allowed.
And since the first rule of the Bilderberg club is you don't talk about the Bilderberg club, the historic hangout session enjoys more conspiracy theories than the moon landing — Bilderberg lore blames the meeting's attendees for everything from the most recent financial crisis to global money laundering.
The first Bilderberg Conference took place in 1954 and was intended to start a dialogue across the Atlantic to prevent another world war.
Western elites held it at the Bilderberg Hotel in the Netherlands. The idea was to foster better ties across the Atlantic in order to prevent another World War. They also gossiped about the Soviets.
Henry Kissinger, David Rockefeller, and other big names were early Bilderberg members.
The group was started by Polish activist Jozef Retinger, who went on to be a major advocate of European unification. Eleven Americans, recommended by the Eisenhower administration, attended the first meeting. Some have stuck around — Kissinger and Rockefeller were at last year's conference.

Bill Clinton, Ben Bernanke, Larry Summers, and Donald Rumsfeld are all Bilderberg alumni.
Also Lloyd Blankfein, George Soros, Rupert Murdoch, and Alan Greenspan. Basically if you're a head of state or an influential mover-and-shaker, check your mailbox.
