I suspect that there's potential for a reskin of the notion of the "fraternal organization" that could work for contemporary urban professionals.

The way this would work is, you have a club, with dues-paying members. Invitation-only, and there's a process to get accepted. Members have to demonstrate high integrity and basically having their lives together: professional success and stable family are good.

Does sound very interesting, even doable. I suspect the sticking point is what "lives together" means, and what kind of things get people kicked out.

That’s tricky, but basically this is a system that can’t support people who are net recipients of aid in expectation. At least not at first. I used to be excited about using mutual aid to get people out of poverty, and then I saw firsthand how hard that is.
