Unfortunately there are way to many Grasshoppers in our society as noted in this article at Bankrate.com.
Americans as grasshoppersThe philosophy that best describes our national psyche might be the grasshopper’s. In a survey of 38 countries released last week by ACNielsen, the United States ranked first — top in the world — as the country with the highest percentage of consumers living paycheck to paycheck. More than a quarter of us — 28 percent, to be exact — said we “have no spare cash” after paying for our essential living expenses.
What’s your excuse?
