I dont think it is true that greeks pay for friends, i know that it is for mixers, formals, philanthropies, insurance, housing, yadayadayada. but you have to admit that the reason you join the "american society of civil engineers" is to network with engineers. you join "habitat for humanity" bc you want to build homes for the homeless. the reason you join an honor society is bc your grades are good or whatever the requirements are.
you join a social sorority/fraternity to make friends. I doubt anyone joined their glo bc of the creed or the philanthropy or because they play intramurals. all that stuff is something you can do whether you are in the glo or not. we joined to meet people that we wanted to be friends with, people who would be our brothers and sisters forever. it's not a bad thing, but you can't say that the statement is completely false.
