They should go work at Costco. Fucking duh.

I don’t know. It’s a good thing WalMart has plenty of money.

#27

The owners make 3% on their money.

#28

3% of a million isn’t much money. 3% of 482 billion IS a lot of money. Percentages like that have no meaning at all when we’re talking about profits in the hundreds of billions. Nice try.

#29

That’s not too shabby, when I took ‘B’ classes the maxim was that grocery averaged about a 1% yield.

Hundreds of billions…do you do math at all?

For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015, Walmart increased net sales by 1.9% to $482.2 billion and returned $7.2 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. Walmart ranked first on the 2014 Fortune 500 list of the world’s largest companies by revenue.

How many shareholders, Sparky?

You know that dividends involves division, right?

Net sales is NOT profit, Sparky

482 huh, that hundreds, right?

Um. Yeah. I think 482 means four hundred eighty two.

Oak is now arguing against paying workers a decent wage. She’s come a long way since shacking up with Mr Faux News.

I guess some people just don’t get mathematics.

Some people don’t know that NET SALES and DIVIDENDS aren’t the SAME.

The magnitude of ignorance of you people is stupefying.

lmao

#37

Huh, what are you shrieking about now?

#38

Was Dawg speaking of dividends or gross earnings? I think you need to back up and re-read the thread. You have no clue what either he or I were talking about.

I’m amazed at how dumb you are
