As well education allows its owner to receive a higher income and gives the opportunity for self-expression, creative fulfilment, as well as moral satisfaction from current activities. The life of educated people is not only longer, but also more interesting and informative. Moreover people with a higher level of education are happier also.

This paper presents results of the correlation analysis between indicators of education, income, happiness and economic freedom for 145 countries for 2018.
