There's a lot of link about Bitcoin for newbies. If ever you can't find even just one, you can also search it through the internet since all the information you want to know about Bitcoin is already in the internet. You can also  give him youtube videos or google links that explain about crypto. Because from the story itself we know what your friend aim, is to get a lot of money from crypto. The same as what I did before, and the reason I learned a lot is because I worked hard to educate myself about cryptocurrency. If he was really interested, then he would look for the information little by little.
