The counter to that is a job is for money. So long as you made some money, you did real work. How you made that money or what you did making that money so long as not immoral or illegal is nobody’s business (even immorality could be nobody’s business as long as you aren’t eating babies or a terrorist)
If you made no money at all, then the counter is you were learning either learning how to sell or learning how to build or so on. If you made no money until 35 then their criticism of you is somewhat valid (everyone should be able to support themselves at a certain point) and you will have to make money in some way shape or form (or get off their teat) if they don’t want you using their money
