Show notes
Samuel Sells, a retired U.S. Air Force and combat veteran, he founded Wild Mountain in 2018 after traveling the globe as an International Health Specialist. Seeing poverty and a lack of safe housing fueled Sam to create a company set to change 1 million lives. Wild Mountain Capital works to change people's lives by transforming neglected and distressed workforce and “affordable” housing into healthy, well-governed communities that are clean and safe. Sam and his team see opportunity where responsibility has been abdicated by property owners or investment capital. To Sam, this is a health initiative that operates in a capitalistic paradigm.[00:01 - 04:22] Opening SegmentLet’s get to know Samuel Sells!Samuel discusses how he started his own business, flipping homes[04:23 - 28:02] Impacting As Many Lives As PossibleSamuel works with foreign militaries to help them develop and sustain healthcare systemsHe discusses, Clean InvestingHe believes that businesses should be involved in multiple aspects of community life, such as:Social servicesEducationInfrastructureHe discusses the idea of impact investingHe discusses how his team operated mobile home parks and storage complexesImpacting as many lives as possible[28:03 - 33:24] THE FINAL FOURWhat's the worst job that you ever had?He worked as a consultantWhat's a book you've read that has given you a paradigm shift?“The Ugly American by Eugene Burdick”What is a skill or talent that you would like to learn?Telling storiesWhat does success mean to you?Samuel says that, “Success is something that you’re always looking for because I always want to be challenged.”Connect with SamuelLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samuelsells/ Website: http://www.wildmountaincapital.comLEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW by clicking this link.
