The bar graphs illustrate data about the purposes of studying among students according to their ages and how much money they earned from employment by age groups. Overall, most young adults studied for their careers, and almost all older people studied for their interests. Also, the youngest adult groups received much more money from employment than their older counterparts.
Regarding reasons for studying, it is clear that the vast majority of students studied for their careers. Among under 26-year-old students, those who studied for their careers were more than students who studied for their interests, at 80% compared to 10%. In the 26 to 29 and the 30 to 39 years old groups, people who studied for their careers were around 60%, while people who studied for their interests represented a fifth. Interestingly, the 40 to 49 years old age groups had the same percentage, two-fifths, for studying for their careers and interests. The over 49 years old age groups showed an opposite trend, with under 20% studying for their careers compared to 70% studying for their interests.
As for employer support, the proportion of money earned was the highest in the under 26 years old group, representing under 70%, while the lowest percentage was in the 30 to 39 years old group, showing more than a third. The proportion of fees received by the 26 to 29 years old age group held the second position, being more active than their 40 to 49 years old counterparts, at 50% compared to under 40%, respectively. The over 49 years old age group earned money from employment under 50%.
