An Ant Marries a Grasshopper
9 money-saving tips for when one spouse is an ant (saver)...and the
other is a grasshopper (spender).
We recently published a blog post about movies a couple can watch together to help
set the stage as a natural and non-threatening conversational opener for couples
to have difficult conversations about serious topics like addiction, sex,
stress, in-law issues, illness, relocation, parenting disagreements and more
That article was pretty well-received.
But we were asked to give a bit more background on one of the movies we
recommended watching together for helping couples talk about money, spending and
saving plus investing: Pixar’s animated flick “A Bug’s Life”.
How the heck does a kid’s animated movie have anything to do with better
financial balance?
If you haven’t seen the movie, the film’s main character is an inventive and
oddball worker ant named Flick. His ant colony works together to protect and
feed each other-- but the ants are victimized each year by a group of
grasshoppers who prefer to steal food from the ants instead of gathering their
own. The grasshoppers claim they’ll provide protection as long as the ants
give a food offering each year. The relationship works for years until Flick
causes a disaster that causes the ants to no longer be able to supply food for
the grasshoppers. The grasshoppers’ leader demands the ants to produce twice
as much food as they did before. As a result, the ants will not have enough food
to store up for themselves. In the story, Flick tries to fix the problem he
created by traveling outside the ants’ territory to recruit warrior bugs to
help fight off the grasshoppers.
The movie is loosely inspired by Aesop’s fable where we learn, in short that:
- Ants are thrifty and efficient, work hard and save, exercise plenty, look to the
future and manage to get everything they can out of everything they’ve got.
- Grasshoppers prioritize rest, play and partying, and tend to spend more than
they earn (eat more than they harvest). It could be because they’re lazier and
more wasteful than ants, though in a judgment-free zone we’d just say they
prefer to enjoy today without worries about tomorrow.
So what happens when an ant (saver) marries a grasshopper (spender), anyway?
It should be pretty obvious that a marriage between the two CAN be troublesome.

And a marriage between an ant and a grasshopper might end badly-- in my
opinion-- unless...
The two agree to do some or all of these 9 things:
---> CONTINUED ON THE BLOG <---
> For what it’s worth…
>> My wife Mrs. Cubic Zirconia is by nature an ant.
>>> I’m naturally more of a grasshopper, frankly.
Together, in the push and pull of a marriage and business partnership together,
we’ve each become a better version of ourselves.
So if you’re a grasshopper married to an ant or an ant married to a
grasshopper-- or one in a mixed pair of nuts considering getting married to
someone who’s kinda your financial opposite-- then you should hear this...
If you’re anything like me and Mrs. Cubic Zirconia, then together, we believe
the two of you can create a life that’s much more fun and successful than
either of you likely ever could have been alone.
Today we’re just sharing a bit of how that’s worked for us
(in a judgment-free zone).
Thanks in advance for your constinued purchases and referrals.

P.S. Even if they love each other, sometimes an ant might wanna punch a
day-dreaming grasshopper in the face. Sometimes a grasshopper might wanna
kidney-punch that know-it-all ant.
Don’t slug a bug. Agree to do some of these things instead.
