Today Gallery Furniture is one of the most-successful independent furniture retailers in the country. Its stores have at various times achieved the highest level of sales-per-square-foot of any store in the US. According to reports released in 2005, the company generates $200 million in revenue per year. An updated report in 2015 pegged annual revenue at around $150 million.

In 1983, Jim took his last $10,000 and invested in a series of local television commercial spots. During the filming of one of those spots, he got frustrated while cameras were rolling and proceeded to pull money out of his pockets while declaring "Gallery Furniture saves you money!". The line was a hit with audiences and would eventually become his trademark catch phrase.

For example, leading up to the World Series in 2021 where his Astros were facing the Braves, Mattress Mack wagered $3.45 million spread across a half dozen sports books. Winning the bet would lead to a record-setting $35.6 million profit, roughly $22 million coming from the Caesars SportsBook in Las Vegas. He estimated the cost of covering his mattress promotion was $22 million.

Jim launched Gallery Furniture from his pickup truck in 1981 with $5,000 in life savings. Business grew slowly but surely in those early months and years, however after the oil industry fell on hard times, so did pretty much every retail business in Texas.

Jim McIngvale was born in Starkville, Mississippi in February 1951.

In its early days the company focused on low-end, inexpensive furniture but overtime branched out into higher-end lines.

Jim McIngvale, also known as Mattress Mack, is an American businessman who has a net worth of $300 million. Mattress Mack earned his fortune as the owner and operator of the Houston-based Gallery Furniture chain.

In summary, the total wealth of Mattress Mack reflects strategic moves.
