You're barely an adult man.
They only say that because they feel the exact same way you do.
Just know that there's no set path, and that this is the time to take risks, and enjoy your mid-twenties. As long as you're working and keeping things paid on time, you'll end up where you end up.
I'm 31 with a house, wife and small child. But I still feel like a child on the inside. I feel like I'm just pretending to be an adult.
There's no such thing as "being an adult".
Here's the difference between being a kid and an "adult": One pays taxes and has debt.
That is literally it. You can absorb as much or as little responsibility as you want, but you're just as much an adult as the next guy

don't worry, they aren't, nothing to worry about OP
I'm 23, I feel the same. I've just stepped into a position at work that requires a lot of "adult" interaction, and reported to by others, some are double my age.
I feel like a kid. I play video games every now and again. I guess it comes down to responsibility. The more responsibilities you have, the more time spent on them, leaving little time to do/act the way that makes you feel childish..
Don't stress man. What is your current work status?

Technically about 80% of Americans are in some form of debt.
I'm technically in debt but have an 880 credit score, $22,000 in the bank, and all my credit cards paid off. How am I in debt? I have a loan out for my car that I'm paying back slowly as to not put myself in a bind. The same applies for house mortgages. You don't sink all your money into something. You create manageable debt.
LOLing @ your obvious lack of how the real world works.

good luck buying a house without a mortgage.
