Eh, this is highly location dependent. If you were lucky enough to be born in Sweden or Norway, you can just give up instantly at 18 and be a NEET for decades with a decent apartment, car, food and all kinds of modern high quality electronics and internet.
Now, say you were born into a hellhole like India or Nigeria. No such option. In fact if you don't start wageslaving as a teenager (or in worst cases, as a kid) you'll get physically beaten.
No matter how hard you work, you will be seen as low value and worthless if you were born into the masses of ordinary families (not oligarchs).
A lot depends on luck in life. Many western neets live 100x better than a poor person in Bangladesh toiling away 16 hours a day in a factory 6 days a week.
