what if you could literally invest in friendships, like each person in your friend group puts $10/week (coffee money) into a shared account, with the understanding that you'll spend it together (on a meal, a trip, a shared experience or good)

• create a weekly "reason" to chat/check in
• create a growing "budget" to brainstorm against
