With Bitcoin you have to try and sell it for fiat then you can access it to use it for things that you want to buy like food and pay for bills.
You need 3 business to get your PayPal money to your bank account? That's quite a long time. I can sell my Bitcoins and get the money the same day in working days. But that's here in Europe, not sure where you are living.
I know BTC transactions are the same, no matter where you send them to. But I am not talking about that. I am asking him where he is living because maybe there is a good service in his country that allows him to cash out his Bitcoins and to receive fiat in his bank account in a quick fashion.
