My life as a hikkikomori is in danger, /jp/.
No money for bills.
No one to help me.
No friends to let me stay with them.

I live with my mom and stepdad. She wants me to get a job but I don't plan on getting one soon, after my last job I've been a complete shut-in and only talked/hung out with one of my friends ever since. They fired me because they claimed I made a no-call-no-show, even though I requested that day off a week in advance because I had to go to a deposition with my lawyer (I was in a car accident and some whore was trying to milk us, thankfully she didn't get away with it). Work is shit and that's all it is.

Part-time jobs are 4-hours but pay less. You live with your parents so you don't exactly have too many things to waste money on. Bills and pills are covered by your and your mother's pensions. All you really need is money for food and maybe one or another game a month. Even then, you'll still have a lot of money to spend. Keep that money and don't spend it.

Also, I'd think your mother would be quite happy to see you work (usually implies you're getting your life back on track), so if you get a job you should try to convince her to stop with the rent bullshit so as long as you pay for the internet, electricity and help with meal costs.

As for family mooching off him, we really don't even try at this point. We know that in the off event that he even picks up the phone, even if we say "We're fucking starving, give us a grocery store gift card if you think we'll misuse the money or something", he'll just hang up.

You call him an ass, a horrible person etc. etc. But let me ask you this: did you or your immediate family (mom/dad/siblings) do anything nice for him? Heck, do you guys even get along on a personal level as opposed to a 'I like you because you have money level'? Rich people and family members have feelings too believe it or not. They know when they are just being used. Someone I went to school had parents swimming in money (new rich). However, they had been treated like shit by their siblings and even some of their own parents. So basically they had cut off ties with most of the family. What goes around comes around.

fuck ... I live in Vancouver and rent minimum is like $650 in a roach motel, $850 on the outskirts of town and $900+ for actually usable near transit or actual stores (not that I ever leave)

That doesn't include internet, animu, fleshlights, utilties, dentist, insurance, food, etc.

Don't ever consider a motel as actually a place to live. They are a temporary place to stay for a few days or so.
Look at websites to rent locally.

Learn programming.

The job is perfect for anti-social people. Not to mention it should be relevant to your interests.

/jp/ is just filled with lazy fucks who wouldn't work even if it means not starving. As long as work is needed, they'll shrivel away saying it's "not suitable for them" and come up with a myriad of excuses.

...its not a literal motel...

Thats the price to rent a small apartment full of roaches.

Programming is different from working. The kind of autism they acquire from tinkering around with their computer and enjoying nihonese entertainment should ensure they can find fun in technology and be curious about programming. The joy when you first create a utility in C could compel you to find out more.

You never know until you try it out.

Contrary to popular opinion, "soft skills" are important if you work in the field. The introductory courses in a nearby school where you can learn to get a computer industry recognized certificate (some bullshit in Germany, it's called "Meister") are all about human communication, instead of doing something with computer.

Unless you want to work self-employed. But is that really enough to be self-sustaining?

The joy when your Bangalore Bros call you five times a day because they can't understand UML.
