Estimated Earnings in City X

       Outline:

1.       Earnings and different ages.

2.       Earnings and different education levels.

3.       Draw your own conclusion.

      As is illustrated in this chart, there is a close link between the earnings and ages. On the average, people at the age of 30 get the highest incomes. The incomes of the people, who are about 20 years of ages, are almost at the same level. The earnings of the people from 40 to 60 years old drop sharply. People at the age of 60 can earn only about 1/5 the incomes of the young.

       If we take a closer look at the relationship between the earnings and the education levels, we can find that the higher education one gets, the more money one can earn.

       From the above analyses, I would say we have to make our greatest efforts to get more education to make more money. Meanwhile, when we are young, we should set aside some money to be used later when we are too old to earn much money.
