you can right off the loss on your taxes so that will save you something

The best part about this is that technically your friend then has to pay taxes on the 2K he received as it's now income for him. (might be considered a gift, but i'm not sure). He probably won't pay, but then you can feel good knowing that he's committing tax fraud.

Other than working out a payment plan, there's probably not much you can do...
