The diagram shows the “conveyor belt of life” in Britain. At the age of 4, 65% of children go to nursery school. By 18, 39% of school-leavers get two or more A-levels. The average student leaves university with a debt of £10,000. At 26, the average graduate starts work and earns about £18,175 a year. Women usually get married at 29, and men at 32. By 35, 70% of people are in debt. The average age for divorce is 40. Women retire at 60, men at 65, and the average British citizen dies at 78.
In Russia, the situation is partly similar, but there are also differences. Children also go to nursery school, many young people continue their education, get married, have debts, and retire later than before. However, the exact ages and percentages are different.
