One way to better visualize unconditional basic income is to think about the income you currently have, and to consider how different it would be to know that $1000/mo of it is permanent. Like if your income is $5000/mo and you lost your job, you'd fall to $1000/mo, not $0/mo.

Don't think about UBI as extra income. It's not about boosting everyone's income. It's about making sure everyone always has at least one stream.
