* The net profit of Walmart, after taxes and paying preferred dividends, was around $15.88 billion in 2014. And that’s only profit, not sales!
* Out of the 10 richest Americans, four are members of the Walton family. They’re worth more than $30 billion each, just six members of the family combined would hold more wealth than the bottom 40% of the American people.
* Walmart’s CEO, Douglas McMillon, is presumed to be paid 1,034 times more than the average Walmart worker. That is by far one of the biggest top-to-bottom differences I have ever heard about.
* Walmart says it's visited by almost 140 million shoppers a week in their U.S. stores. That’s the equivalent of about 44% of the American population.
* If you take the size of all the Walmart stores and combine it, it will exceed the size of Manhattan.
* Since Walmart is one of the biggest US gun retailers, it's no shock that it's a frequent scene for shooting incidents. It is estimated that there were 92 shooting incidents last year, and 83 in 2013.
* The Walmart Corporation and Foundation have donated $1.4 billion in cash and in-kind contributions around the world last year, which makes it one of the most charitable companies in absolute terms. And yet this is less than 0.1% of the net worth of the Walton Family Foundation and rumored to actually be a legal loophole to avoid taxing.
