Everyone’s so desperate to extend their childhood deep into their 20s (and maybe even 30s), a word was created to describe anything that hinted of being “grown up.” And that’s how “adulting” was born.

Here are the top 10 signs of adulting, according to a new survey of 2000 millennials:

1.  Having a steady job.

2.  Being financially independent.

3.  Paying a bill on your own.

4.  Paying rent or a mortgage on your own.

5.  Paying for your car on your own.

6.  Making a budget.

7.  Filing your taxes.

8.  Cooking your own meals.

9.  Moving out of your parents’ house.

10.  Being on time for work.

Some things that just missed the top 10 are:  Doing your own laundry . . . showering regularly . . . reading news . . . confronting someone directly instead of blasting them on social media . . . and moving out of your hometown.
