how can i get them 2 understand bitcoins?

Depending on what sources they trust, this may be useful:

You could try this angle: You have an interest in currency trading and there is only one market where you can participate with $10 or less a week, and that is bitcoin. If you simply break even you are doing better than most everyone else and that would indicate perhaps that you might have a future in the financial industry.

Do you have anything that you would be willing to sell in exchange for bitcoins? it costs nothing but your time to list on BiddingPond.com for example.
