At what age did you become financially stable and independent?

Roughly 25. A year after grad school. I say roughly because I did take a ultra low interest loan from my parents shortly after buying my house for some renovations, which I've since paid back and they did buy us a new washing machine when ours broke less than a week after my wife gave birth to our son. We could have put something on a credit card and made it work, but it was nice to not have to worry about more debt on top of hospital bills from the birth (no one warns you quite how high those will be!)

Taken together as independent AND stable then ~25 with first decent paying full time stable job with good benefits.

Everything prior was working through college and would not define as "stable" although it was independent.
