A new website is gaining popularity and made it onto national TV: Rentafriend.com.
Nothing sleazy as rent a ...what some politicians resorted to lately. And just like with a dating agency you can choose from a data base of people whose profile you see and select from. So what's different? You pay for the privilege of meeting these "friends" at a rate of $10-150. I need to sign on and find out who is charging that much. I'm not saying a good friend ain't worth it--but he won't charge, would he?
So who is using this growing site with over 10,000 hits a month?
Newcomers to a city (very popular allegedly in NY and other urban centers. Makes sense). And a daughter who is moving out from her elderly mother to another town for a job, is paying a friend to visit her mother several times a week. Ain't it sweet?
