At What age did Life Get Real for You?

16-17. Started working full time in addition to going to school and playing sports.

I was out the house, on scholarship at 17...Things have steadily been getting more and more real since then. I'm 19 now, and have about 10k of student loan debt...Gonna try to get that knocked out within this next year or two so I can graduate without debt.
