Anybody who believes that an "ordinary worker" at Walmart retires with
a 750 g's on the basis of a TV puff piece...........
OTOH, I recall reading about a Sears & Roebuck "ordinary worker"
who had put almost every penny she made into the Sears ESOP,
and was almost a  millionaire when she retired after working there 40
years.
Then she died.
Of course, Sears was never Red China's biggest trading partner.
