There are people who work and barely survive. No luxuries, or not many.

Why don't you do some research?

Find out what entry level jobs are available in your area. Find out how much they pay. Find out how much rent costs in your town. Try and work out a budget like electric, food etc.

See if the wage covers those things. See how much is left over.

Look at what the next step could be after the entry level job once you have a bit of experience.

Maybe look at college courses. See if you can get a vocational qualification. Just get some prospectuses and flick though them and see what's available and what the entry level requirements are.

Slaves are bought and sold. In between, the are whipped and beaten.
The Free are hired and fired. In between, they earn their wages.
Lazy, good-for-nothing people make excuses.

You're lazy because you believe a lie.

Why?

Can't handle someone calling you out?

You admit that you're lazy. You admit that you hate work. And all you can do is complain about how your parents want you to grow up and be responsible for yourself.

Well, mister, I left home at the age of 18, worked three part-time jobs at the same time to put myself through school, worked to earn a Bachelor's Degree and then a Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering. I spent 6 years in the Navy, working my way up from buck recruit to 1st Class Petty officer. I've worked 20+ years in the transportation industry, and worked to set up a property-management system that covers over 50 units of rental property.

My wife and I are now working to develop properties overseas, and one of those properties is going to be our retirement home.

All of this without any help from my parents or relatives. Nobody handed me my wealth -- I worked for it!! Now, while you may believe that "hard work doesn't pay", I am living proof of that what you believe is itself a lie.

You want an income? You want respect? You want a life? Then get up, grow up, get out, get a job, and WORK for it!!

Ever heard of survivorship bias? Not every autist is as successfull as you, in fact most live off welfare.

Id say Good Answer.. but I don't want to be accused of wanting attention too, due to neutrally unhappy people looking for a cyber poke, preferably in the ribs
Peace of advice, there isn't much, just go with the flow or skip the discussion. Having said this, saying you want to be killed is selfish when there are happy Larry's being headbutted with slow profit margins everyday. Must be such a blow to society. Not to mention the words of A Sugar of D Trump. Sadly, Your ass is fired. :roll:

Evidence, please?

Sure, not everyone is as successful as I. Then again, not everyone takes as much pride as you seem to in hating work and wanting their parents to support them forever.

If you are disabled -- that is, certifiably incapable of working due to mental and/or physical disabilities -- then fine, you have a REAL disability that keeps you unemployed.

NEWS FLASH: Laziness is not a disability, it's a choice. Choosing to not earn a living when you are fully capable is a disgrace to you and your family, and totally unworthy of respect.

If you're stuck and looking for a payout, unless you have pots of savings don't join the welfare society as its a life sentence and you can't find a way out unless you go on social media to marry a celebrity.. never much appealed to me, and neither does putting myself up for auction or like making myself manage a group that has lost a task., you can't get over those failures easily and the stigma never leaves you whatever the demand or authority is.
