You have great friends. I think all my friends would give up in frustration at the mere mention of such an arrangement.

Buddy #1 going to Hawaii: Instead of 240k miles, he used them to redeem 2 J tickets to Southeast Asia for buddy #2
Buddy #2 bot 4 coach tickets for $1800 to Hawaii for buddy #1
Buddy #3 used 8 expiring CR1s that he had no idea he even had and in return, got a VERY good referral from buddy #2.
