What people over 60 say most: 'study more'

When 800 Japanese adults over sixty were asked to write their biggest regret in their own words, the answer that came up most was "I should have studied more." Not degrees — one certificate, one language, the reading they kept postponing. One respondent wrote "because work was busy," then added underneath: "I know now that was an excuse." The years you stop learning return as the sentence "I should have started then."
