CR -
I was addicte to crack and literally lived in various "traps" - where they sell drugs and usually have a room, or shed, or something for the people who smoke crack. If I had enough money, would rent a hotel room (dope boys who sold crack had rooms at same motel) and smoke dope until the money ran out.
Pretty much everyone I know who's addicted to cocaine (whether the powder kind or crack) does the same thing. I wouldn't worry too much....money doesn't last long with cocaine. The longest I saw a friend "disappear" was about 2 months, and she went through $60,000 (part of which was her $30,000 jeep she sold for $500 of crack). My feeling is, you'll hear from him as soon as the money runs out.
Hugs and prayers!
