He is a natural salesman who became a self-made millionaire and the owner of the furniture retail store Gallery Furniture.
Early Life
McIngvale attended Bishop Lynch High School in Dallas and went on to graduate from North Texas State University where he played football.
Career
With a nose for spotting good business, McIngvale started his furniture business from the trunk of his car with his newly wedded wife in 1981. Thanks to the influx of migrants who wanted a share in Texan's oil, the furniture business grew surely and steadily.
A few years later, sales declined and McIngvale invested his last $10,000 in making television commercials. The ads worked like a charm and marked the beginning of the catchy phrase “Save You Money”. Mattress Mack, as he is also called, is known for his charitable ways, donating furniture to the needy and donating money to assist the first responders in Houston.
Trivia
On November 6, 2022, McIngvale won the largest single sports bet of $75 million after betting $3 million on the Houston Astro who won the World Series title.
