Agree on the walking to work part as he will lose weight, but saying it's 'game over' for him is bullshit. It's never game over for a man. Ever.
Writing ebooks/freelancing is a quick way to earn money but it is a grind. That's what I do, but then I've gotten used to it. Not so much a grind anymore. In fact on days I don't write, I feel like something is missing. Tell him to hit up Fiverr, Upwork and, if he enjoys fiction, Kboards. Lots of writers there can help him out.
Does he sound like the kind of guy who could write an ebook? He's basically described as fat, with no computer skills, with a degree in social work which is fuck all.
With no skills and no ability to do manual labor you're really just fucked, which is why it's so important to build early in life.
You should rephrase what you said to...
"Its never game over for a man who has the willpower to change his situation".
And that would be more true.
