this plant will be 5 weeks old on tuesday, my roommate wants to clone it now and thinks we can get 5 off it, I want to wait a couple weeks to make sure we dont kill the plant and also to make sure that we can get 8 clones. So is he right about getting 5 now?

That's what I thought too. I'd say 4.

Estimating since I can't see the entire plant but I wouldn't go more then 5 on it right now, but I think the plant would survive.

I wouldnt clone it yet. It is immature. Best time to clone a plant is when it is growing at alternating Nodes. Then it is stronger.

You still have normal nodes, so it's a No-Go in my opinion.. Wait the few weeks you were going to.

you could but...if you wait the amount of time you specified (two more weeks ) yes you could possibly get 8 .

Well the thing about waiting, is your plants bigger now so it will grow faster and faster as it's foliage can take in more and more energy. I'd still say it's possible, though opinions obviously vary.
