Would people on #UBI still work? "If by ‘work’ we mean ‘paid employment’, then the answer is yes. In the short to medium term, we are unlikely to see a Basic Income that would be sufficient to live on, so everyone would need additional sources of income." basicincome.org/faqs/.
Every person on #UniversalBasicIncome would only receive two years money paid in two lump sums. Once the money is spent, there would be no more financial handouts for the remainder of their life.
The #UBI would help people acquire the essentials they would need to #rent in order to survive. They would also need to work to earn money so that they could continue to rent the things they've acquired. No work = no income = no rent payments = you lose everything.
