My 24 year old won't get a job

[fluffyvase]

My son finished University last summer. He still has no job. He tells me has money and is fine. He lives with me at home. He is in his room all the time. He sleeps most of the day and is up most of the night. He leaves the house probably once a week to meet his brother. I'm worried about his lack of social skills from not being in the workplace etc. I need some advice on what to do.

How does he have money?!
do you charge him rent?

Advice is he gets off his butt and gets a job
may not be in his chosen field but that’s what he needs to do
get in a healthy sleep routine and up in the day to job hunt
Give him a deadline

he’s an adult

I hope to hell you are charging him rent!
If so..put it up..
If not..you need to start
Otherwise NOTHING is going to change!

He’s an adult so as long as he’s paying a reasonable rent, you could choose to leave well alone. If you want him to grow up and move out however, you need to get tough and push harder on the job front (agree re put his rent up), etc

If he's got money you need to charge rent for a start!

Where is this money coming from?

He invests his money online apparently. He doesn't listen to anything I tell him, just says he has it under control. Do I leave him to it? Do I keep trying to voice my concerns to him?

Do you charge him rent? Does he pay for his own food? Does he clean the house and make meals?

And you let him stay...why?

Because he is her son and she loves him of course!

If he has money he needs to make a contribution to the household. He needs to undertake chores around the house - including leaving the house to run errands and do food shopping. Absolutely voice your concerns to him - who else will and what will be the impetus to ever change this blissful situation?

is he paying rent?

Sorry to be an echo but... is he paying rent?
I assume not as you have ignored the question.
I would be starting with that. I need x amount a month which may mean he relooks at his finances.
Yes he needs to be working in some respect as it's bigger than not earning. It's the lack of socialising. The harder he will find it as time goes on.

Sounds like he’s playing online poker or similar if he has money, is up all night and says he’s ‘investing his money online’.

playing the markets?
bitcoin?

Could he help around the house? Or contribute towards household expenses?

He'll also have a lot more energy if he sleeps at night.

I'd say "well that's great son :) So you won't object to me charging you rent and bills monthly? Since you're an adult now, it's fair that you pay your way."
