> But then I also know at least 4 people in their late twenties who prefer weed and gaming over getting a job.

I find this kind of phrasing confusing. I think most people would prefer their substance and activity of choice over getting a job, most people just don't have that option. I'm guessing these kids are being supported by their parents or partners?

Fourth guy I was thinking of has a job so I guess I know 3. Parents and unemployment money yeah.

I really miss one guy in particular, none of our group ever see him anymore. The only way I can know what's happening in his life is to talk to the dealer who I hang out with occasionally. Hope he wisens up soon. Used to be a pretty smart guy too but all the doing nothing for years made him dumb.
