best tan i ever had was in vegas a couple years back.

incredible town mozart. -almost moved to nevada myself.

to answer your question simply. -no.. there's no karma beyond that which provoked your friend's notions of suicide. which is to say karma is the residue of illusory perspective. in other words our environmental fixations that may be interpreted as financial hardship or otherwise, are not of our making in any meaningful way. it's simply a prop on the stage. if your friend's played out his part, and wants to go home -that's fine. try and make it clear to him however; that his self-identity that's clearly wrapped up in his financial status and comfort therein- is an environmental projection he has adopted onto himself- that has nothing at all to do with him, anymore than it does anyone else. whether extremely wealthy, extremely poor, or the vast spectrum between; by general illustration of adopted environmental projection.

course if he came to realize this, he might feel differently about cutting loose(?)

then again- maybe not.

may mention as well that a deprivation tank could be the ticket he's looking for. seems reasonable that the symbolic gesture of sinking into a peaceful slumber at the bottom of a lake; rather than succumb to a projected-fixation in a waking despair -would cultivate a liberty he's presently neglecting himself; in slavery of false self-perspective. or what is literally the big bad wolf of smoky mirrored karma.

point being- there's no such thing as karmic provocation or residue, provided one realizes this through and through.

kind regards,
