🧠 Episode Overview

In this powerful episode of the Generations of Wealth Podcast, Derek Dombeck interviews seasoned investor Paul Moore, who shares his 25+ year journey from corporate life to entrepreneurship, house flipping, and finally, to becoming what he calls a "boring investor" in commercial real estate.

Paul opens up about his early mistakes, chasing shiny objects, losing millions, and the critical mindset shift that led to long-term success. The conversation goes deep into topics like investor due diligence, mobile home parks, financial freedom, and even Paul’s heart-led mission to combat human trafficking.
