The Ants Relax, Right?

The story is also about discipline and time management. The ants work hard in the summer, but then in the winter, there's nothing else to do. They've already got the food. So that's when they relax. If you get a job and you're suddenly making more money, don't that's not a time for spending more instead? That's like the grasshopper - he doesn't think ahead. He just buys lots of new stuff.
