26 year old me (if living at home with no real expenses) would look at that $2k per month from UBI and think I should also take that server job so I could bring home $4500 a month and get out of my parents house! Or, more accurately, the real 26 year old me would have appreciated that $2k per month cushion to support me while I started my business...

My cousin is 30 and still lives at home rent-free with her mom. She doesn't even have a job. Her only afflictions are laziness and entitlement. It gets worse; my cousin is married and hubby lives in the house too.
But to answer your question if the 'typical' 26 year old is that unmotivated, oh hell no. My cousin is a massive (heh) outlier, not the norm. Yet they way you hear people talk, you'd think she's representative of the population, and it just isn't true.
