Need a job? Can you be a friend? Then you’re hired!

(I-Newswire) January 7, 2010 - EASTON, Pennsylvania (January 5, 2010) - With unemployment rates at the highest levels in years, a new website might just be the solution to this troubled economy. The only qualification necessary for this job: You must know how to be a friend.

“We call it the job with the easiest qualifications”, said Frank Rose the Friendship Coordinator of the newest internet sensation: RentAFriend.com

A lot of people are currently looking for ways to make some extra money. People used to be able to get a part time job. Unfortunately in this economy finding a part time job has become difficult. With less businesses hiring, and many cutting back on hours and workers, everyone’s starting to feel the pinch.

“We were looking to start a unique business that could be beneficial to many people”, said Rose. “It needed to have a common interest that many people could share. We thought everyone enjoys making a new friend, and everyone enjoys making money. So why not combine them?”

That’s when the idea for RentAFriend.com was born. RentAFriend.com is a website where people can rent out their friendship on a strictly platonic level. There are many reasons why people are hiring friends. Perhaps someone is in an unfamiliar city for vacation or work and they want a local to show them around. People are also hiring friends to learn new talents such as dancing, singing, acting, art and more.

RentAFriend.com allows people to highlight their unique talents and skills that other people may be interested in hiring them for. Perhaps someone wants to learn a new language, skill, or hobby. “Everyone has something unique that they can teach someone and there seems to be no shortage of people who are willing to pay.” Said Rose.

Don’t have any unique talents or skill? Don’t worry. “Just being a friend and someone to talk to is good enough. A lot of people want to see a movie or go to a restaurant but they don’t want to go alone, so RentAFriend.com is the perfect place to find someone local who is willing to go with you.”

Friends on RentAFriend.com can earn up to $50 an hour depending on what the person is looking to hire them for. Friends also have the option of waiving their fee or negotiating directly with the person who is looking to hire them. Best of all, the friend gets to keep 100% of the money they make. “You are your own boss, you make your own hours and you keep 100% of the money you earn.” Rose said. “It’s the ultimate job”.

Frank made it extremely clear that RentAFriend.com was not a dating website. “We have a very strict no contact rule. RentAFriend.com is strictly a platonic friendship website. This is not a dating website. There is no physical contact allowed.”

RentAFriend.com is also 100% free for friends to signup to advertise their friendship.

RentAFriend.com is available to all US and Canadian residents. If you want a job, and you can be a friend, then you’re hired! “We are always looking to recruit new friends for the website. It’s a great way to brighten up people’s days as well as make a little extra money.” Rose said.

With 34,000 current friends for rent, http://www.RentAFriend.com might be onto something.
