Well, if you stop enabling him by giving him more months to party, it would mean he now has to think what he wants to do. Till that day comes, why should he? It is just like welfare. As long as they are getting more money to pop babies out of the oven, why should they change anything?
He wants to stay at your place? No problem. Pay rent like anyone else. That way he HAS to get a job. A few days on the street might make him realize that he best get a job. After that, he might realize that he either has to excel at something or get an education or whatever. That will make him want to find his path instead of lollygagging.
