    Simply because as you said in your original post. He doesn't know the ins and outs, a minimum of 2 years is my suggestion. @Ridgeline knows his ####, is go with his suggestion.

    Your friend doesn't have the testicular foritude to ask his own questions. And doesn't have experience.

    Just give the track away. He'll be better off.
