And now a question of etiquette...

Now, it seems to me that if you want to go out and do something, and you simultaneously don't want to go alone AND know that the person you want to invite doesn't have the capitol to go and play, doesn't that seem to suggest that you HAVE to pay your companion's way?

I mean, if you KNOW they can't afford it but want them to come along with you because the event isn't fun/worth going to alone...well, that seems like it implies that you'd be willing to pay for their entry into said event, right?

Is my etiquette on this incorrect?
