Gambling addiction can be very hard to quite most importantly when it is combined with emotions and feeling.
Using military disciplinary measures can make the case of the fellow more hardened to leave, because this can make him or her to try other ways of doing there things secretly.
There are many ways to help an addicted gambler
* Be friendly to them by so doing they will be able to share there experience with you
* You must be able to keep secrets of what ever they tell you out of trust.
* Give them every support available within your reach and when ever they need it.
* Asking them what is there aim of gambling and how they intend to succeed through gambling
All this steps will help them open up and therefore easy to advise them.

I think the approach you conveyed is quite wise, gentle in tone and more acceptable, or in other words, more effective because it avoids being judgmental. By trying to understand those who struggle with gambling addiction, they will indirectly become more open to sharing their experiences. At that point, someone will have a better opportunity to offer thoughtful advice.

I believe that when a person who is addicted to gambling develops self awareness and a desire to improve, the effort to help them quit becomes much easier. At the very least, they can exercise greater self control in deciding their attitude and what they are actually seeking from gambling.

Addicted gambler can only solve this unhealthy gambling if he also not to reject anything he get from people around him that trying to help him. As far as he still believe in his dream about get back anything from his losses, he will trying to ignored any advice for him. self control and decision is a must to control him self from addiction. But, for me beside of good advice, religion, social or family, his effort to quit from his addiction is necessary.
You are correct that when anyone will support financially the person would not be able to stop gambling and there is a chance to stop gambling if there is no one who might help him/her or support him/her by funding. But at the same time when no one support the gambler the gambler may turns into bad side eg: hijacking, trafficking and so on.
You should know this better than everyone, I am sure that people come to you for loans and secretly end up gambling it, don't know if anyone would do it openly, but I am sure that there are ones who do that. These people are so addicted that they can't stop even when they do not have any money and they resort to getting loans for future income just to be able to gamble and that's not an okay thing, it is not going to really be a good thing at all.

I would say that these people will not be getting any better unless they really want it themselves, it is not going to be possible for them to make money without any of this. I understand it is not easy to ask for help, but if you are in that much trouble, it's best to realize first that you are in need of help.
