It's not all that rare in my circle of friends, to be honest, even from back before any of us were making serious money.
If you include "in kind" gifting rather than just cash -- for instance, inviting a friend to come along on a trip and paying their way -- then this is quite common with my social group. It's mostly to minimize the hassle since, in the long run as everyone does this for each other, it all evens out.
- bradlys 2y agoRight but the point is that these people could never give back because they have no money. So, it's literally giving them a lot of money.
- JohnFen 2y agoWhich (in our group) is perfectly fine. There are several friends who are less financially capable than the rest. Nobody cares. Friendship is much more important than money.
