I live with my parents and am fully dependent on their income. I don’t have a job and never worked.
I want to get financially independent from my parents and live off welfare like NEETs do. How do I do that?
Obviously I don’t qualify for welfare right now. My parents’ income is my household income. If I live separate from them but they pay my rent, will my household income then be $0? What does it take to officially count as poor? Do I just have to move out and not have my parents pay for anything, thus making me “legally poor” even though my parents are not? But how can I move out and pay for rent and food without any money of my own? Do I need to go homeless in order to qualify for government assistance?
Basically, I want to put myself in a situation where I can be considered poor and in need of assistance from a legal perspective. However at the moment it seems I can either (a) live with parents and be not poor or (b) be literally homeless.
Is getting a part-time job, saving up money, moving out, paying my own rent with my savings, and then quitting the job a working solution?
