Hehe, delightful article.

Grasshoppers may seem more impressive when they swarm the sky, but ultimately, they will still die early. Ants, on the other hand, are much more resilient. We will survive.

Yes, BA, it's been disheartening at times when everyone else seemed to be climbing the ladder of success and we looked around and didn't even know where to find it. Everyone else seemed to know the answer to $$questions we thought we must not know how to answer, or weren't even thinking correctly to know to ask.

We Ants - bunker builders!!

Duhh!!

While others were busy building houses of cards, seems we've actually been doing better by building a strong foundation.

This article sends me back to re-read 'The Millionaire Next Door' and the 'More w/Less Cookbook' type books.
