You mean that "most" of you chose to. There will always be cases where people needed to leave a home for any number of valid or necessary reasons. But the vast majority of people who take on student loans don't come from broken homes or would otherwise fit those scenarios. For most, leaving home earlier is a choice, not a necessity.

There also comes a question of what you prioritized over time. How many big vacations did you take while paying down your debt? How many video games and other luxury goods did you buy?
