A woman recently went viral after exposing the Walmart family’s superyacht—but she said she was unimpressed by the way the family spends its money.
In a TikTok that has racked up over 1.2 million views as of Monday afternoon, Clare (@clarekloon) showed viewers the superyacht parked in a marina in Spain.
“You ever wonder like, um, what the Walmart family does with their money?” Clare asked.
@clarekloon parked in the barcelona marina and we were shocked. does anyone you know work on this boat? #walmartyacht #chaosmegayacht #kaostheyacht #walmartmoney #richlife #eattherich #superyacht #minicruiseship #yachtspotter ♬ original sound – clare
She then flipped her camera so viewers could see the ginormous yacht parked in the water.
“That,” she said, referring to a large boat. “That’s what they do with their money.”
So viewers could better understand the boat’s size, Clare compared it to others parked in the marina.
“For reference, that’s a yacht,” she said, pointing her camera at a smaller boat. “That’s another yacht.”
She then emphasized that the Walmart family yacht in question is, in fact, no ordinary boat.
“This, according to Google, is a superyacht,” she said. Clare said it looked like a “mini cruise ship.”
According to online reports, the boat in question is apparently owned by Walmart heiress Nancy Walton Laurie. The megayacht was purchased for $300 million from the Qatar royal family. Among its many features, the vessel has the most marble and stone ever installed on a yacht.
In the accompanying video caption, Clare sarcastically cheered on the Walmart family’s massive display of wealth. But not everyone in the comments agreed with her point of view.
“Am I the only one that expected more? I mean Walmart family is rich rich,” one viewer wrote.
“I would buy one too if I was that rich,” another added. “Idk what y’all complaining about.”
“If you make it, enjoy spending it,” a third user echoed.
Others, however, agreed with Clare’s criticisms.
“I no longer feel guilty about forgetting to scan my onions today,” one user said.
“That’s why you switch price tags at Walmart when you self scan,” another added.
