ANSWER:

You are not obliged to provide a penny to your brothers and siblings as this is the responsibility of the father of the house and then the sons. 

If they are able but declining to do their duty, you can work and keep all what you make to yourself and not share it with them. 

It is best to get married asap and get out of such a vicious cycle of selfish individuals who like to live off of you.
