Example, 12 people form a pool of putting $100/mo into club, 1 person gets an $1100 payout per month. Winner drawn from a bag of names OR someone with an emergency gets to jump the queue. Limit 1 per year. Nobody needs to hold funds long-term. Built purely on trust.

The key is to do all this without the need for central asset holding. Only books and trust records are maintained. With incentives to keep people from abusing. Like new member can’t cash out till end of a first full cycle. Missing a month payin bars you on payout for 3 months etc
