Studies never end ?

Actually I think there must be a misunderstand here. People has different target of achievement in theirlife, and of course different life satisfaction. Some seeks for power, some seeks popularity. People who keeps studying to get degrees have their satisfaction in knowledge. They are people that really have the needs of education. They like it not because they need it. They go to school because it will fulfill what missing in their life. I've never heard such thing as studies never end, but I heard 'learning never end' instead. Learning never end means that in life you always going to learn something. Not from school. You learn to handle your anger, you learn to appreciate people, you learn neew views etc. It is not what you think I hope this will help you to understand :)

i think some people just really like to be in school. some enjoy it and some like the environment compared to being anywhere else. and some feel better about themselves with all the degrees that they have.

I think that everyone sould study as much as theya re able to do so, so that they can live a more fulfilling and happy life,. it is good to study it helps to keep the brain diseases of old age away I think.

Hello, alpha7! Yes, they say that studies never end. I guess they are right. I mean, not studying in school, but studying life. Life is always teaching you new things. You are constantly learning and evolving, that's the rule that should be followed by all humans. I guess that what they mean when they say that studies never end is this: you will be always learning new things from life. Now, if some people wish to really follow what the sentence says, strictly, then I guess they will at least keep on learning, lol. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

I respect your opinion on that. That is your preference and your decision. As for those who continue to study, I don't see anything wrong with that. It is unfair for you to judge them that way that they never have plans for the future. They must have a good reason why they're still studying especially if they reached that age, 60 as per your example, to keep themselves motivated to study that long. I'd just let them be. It's what they want and if they're not stepping on my space (which is very very unlikely) I'd even support them. We're all different in most ways. We each have our own little ways to enjoy our lives. Studying is one of theirs.
