While I don't know about intellectual whores, I agree with mantus. If one of two people is in love or even just in lust with the other they cannot be true friends. It just can't happen when one will always have a different agenda. If you think you are really his friend then cut things off with him.
Now as far as how to go about doing something like that without being hurtful...no idea.
If you decide to stay friends with him, then as far as accepting that gift like somone above said it all depends on how easily he can afford it. And shit, even if he can afford it, tell him it would be better for him to take the money and donate it to a charity instead. You just shouldn't accept gifts like that from unrequited love relationships.
