Help Debts

my brother has been doing his own business for the past years, and is not doing well, he does not want to end it and in a lot of debts, he does not go to his office for sometime now but insist that his business still in operation.he turns to gambling for big money but end up losing more and still keep finding people to invest or funds his company.
i had so many time ask him to wind up the business, get a job, paid all debt and start afresh but he say if he closed now, he loses big sum of money. Nobody in the family is able to get thru to him.

i actually enstranged from him for almost a year( i really pissed off, becoz we sold our house to clear his debts) , he himself never even give a phone call my parents since then.

Recently he called me up and saying he havind a very rough time and ask for a small amount of loan, but i do not agree and say if he want my help he can come back to my new house anytime ( i did so becoz my mother misses and worry about him too much) and yes he did come back after a month. and is only been a week and i think i’m losing it….

ok here are the point and what should i do? (B4 his financial crisis, he is a very resposible young man, why this is happening?)
1. i believes that his company is not in operation, even if it does, it must be in a very bad shape.
2. he gambled if he has the money (he also loses a lot in share market before) he just want big money now
3. few thousand dollars is not enough monthly salary for him and he rather sit in from of a computer keep posting for people to buy his company or asking for loan
4. he potentially will go to illegal money lender??!! i know…
5. he is turning into a loser who don’t want to get a job, just eat and sleep and everything is free.
6. OMG, can he still be saved??
