        The first graph shows that there is a gradual decrease in study for career reasons with age. Nearly 80% of students under 26 years, study for their career. This percentage gradually declines by 10-20% every decade. Only 40% of 40-49 year olds and 18% of over 49 year olds are studying for career reasons in late adulthood.
        Conversely, the first graph also shows that study stemming from interest increases with age. There are only 10% of under 26 year olds studying out of interest. The percentage increases slowly till the beginning of the fourth decade, and increases dramatically in late adulthood. Nearly same number of 40-49 year olds study for career and interest. However 70% of over 49 year olds study for interest in comparison to 18% studying for career reasons in that age group.
        The second graph shows that employer support is maximum(approximately 60%) for the under 26 year students. It drops rapidly to 32% up to the third decade of life, and then increase in late adulthood up to about 44%. It is unclear whether employer support is only for career-focused study, but the highest level is for those students who mainly study for career purposes.
