Friends as a service, ha :) Naturally money can pretty easily promote companionship but I’m guessing people might need a few hints how to perform the conversion.

Edit: Thinking about this more, it seems like there could be room in the market for “like Tinder, but for arranging social events” (ie party, soccer, whatever)

“John from 3 streets down would like you to play soccer this Saturday (26 people are going, you’ve met 5). Accept/Decline?”

That's what streaming services like Twitch are, aren't they?
