There is now hope for those too busy, exhausted or socially inept to make a friend with the new Japan rent-a-friend. Now instant companionship can come at the low-cost of $100 a day.
Japan rent-a-friend will not only provide you with friends, but also with relatives, work colleagues to attend important functions in your life such as your wedding.
For an extra $60 - $70, your Japan rent-a-friend will also provide a heart-warming speech at your reception, and for $30 - $40, will share in a song and dance.
Japan rent-a-friend’s employees take their jobs very seriously, claiming it is hard work remembering specific details about their “friends” so as not to let on to the real friends/colleagues/relatives that they were picked, purchased and paid for.
