Make Money by Thinking Boring | Paul Moore


Listen Later

Paul Moore is the founder of Wellings Capital, a seasoned real estate investor, author, and entrepreneur. With a background that spans engineering, Fortune 500 management, and multiple successful business exits, Paul has built a reputation for turning setbacks into comebacks. He’s passionate about commercial real estate, financial education, and using wealth to make a positive impact. Paul’s journey from $2.5 million in debt to financial freedom—and his focus on “boring” but reliable investments—makes his story both inspiring and instructive.

On this episode we talk about:

  • Paul’s unconventional journey from engineer to real estate investor

  • The difference between speculation and true investing

  • How a mindset of generosity helped Paul escape massive debt

  • Why boring investments like self-storage and mobile home parks can outperform flashier options

  • Actionable steps for getting started in commercial real estate—even with little money or experience

    Top 3 Takeaways

    1. Real wealth is built through steady, reliable investments—not speculation or chasing trends.

    2. Giving and building relationships can open doors to opportunities that money alone can’t buy.

    3. Anyone can break into commercial real estate by finding deals and connecting with experienced operators.
