The Top Signs of Adulting According to Millennials

Everyone's so desperate to extend their childhood deep into their 20s and maybe even 30s today that they needed a word to describe it when they actually do anything to act like a grown-up. That's how "adulting" was born.

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

Having a steady job.
Being financially independent.
Paying a bill on your own.
Paying rent or a mortgage on your own.
Paying for your car on your own.
Making a budget.
Filing your taxes.
Cooking your own meals.
Moving out of your parents' house.
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.
