Guiding towards emotional detachment is still my personal recommendation. It is about 'mental assertiveness that allows people to maintain their boundaries and ... integrity when faced with the emotional demands of another person or group of persons.' Emotional detachment
It's perhaps better to err on the side of not giving personal opinion about another's family member, and better to be more a sounding board.
Your friend may find their stressors more alleviated once moved further from their ex, and hopefully your friend obtains different employment.
The request a loan idea, isn't too far fetched, with a written contract.

That's an amazing reply! Thanks so much. Everything you mention is so true. FB can be a terrible thing when I comes to personal problems. I'm sure my friend will move on with his life. I don't think a loan would be an option for him. He works with his ex and this makes things so difficult for him. I think he need to get over his brother issue and look for options.
Thank you so much.
