My dad and I have that going on right now...start with a thousand. If you have less than $1000, it doesn't feel as good when you hit something, but it also doesn't seem to be so bad when you lose a bunch...the numbers are simply smaller. I think if you truly clarify to your friends what their risks are, if they feel comfortable with an amount, I'd go with it. Then if you hit it big, they won't be pissed that they didn't have more invested. If they lose more, then they knew that that was the risk of putting in more initially.
Here's to a green day!
