Forever? Probably not. But there are tons of drinks that use it, so if you drink or serve drinks with any kind of frequency, you can go through it fairly quickly. I doubt it spoils as quickly as the regular fruit juices.

sweet or dry?
excellent for manhattans and martinis
If he's gonna make manhattans or martinis, he should get a mixing glass.

Get some bourbon. Id recommend some knob creek or Rip Van Winkle's for some truly excellent bourbon, shouldnt run you more then 20-30 dollars for one. Rip is better however.

You should get Bombay Sapphire instead of Tanqueray. Also you need a bottle of Patron. Anejo.

Tanguray is the only gin I ever had. I like it. Is Bombay better?

Long Island Iced Tea, I would imagine. Or if you want to them drunk really quickly, learn to make a Zombie.

shopping list, you can build it on a budget and still have a decent selection, if it's mostly your mooching friends that are drinking your booze, buy well brands like Mr.Boston, it's suitable for mixing, SilverSoul made some good recomendations (why isnt he a bartender?)
other recomendations are Cointreaux, Chambord and most anything you'll need for shooters and such, as well as various liquers like the triple sec, creme de menth and creme de cocoa and amaretto. generaly you want at least 2 types of each liquor, a top shelf and a well brand. each will have their purpose.

Well, right now I work as a janitor during the week, so I don't have time during the evenings. But I am planning on looking up culinary staffing agencies and seeing if I can get some banquet gigs.
