Meet David Moody, Owner of a Construction Company That Has Done $3 Billion in Deals

Our previous article about C. David Moody has been shared over 1.3 million shares and counting. That tells us that you all want to know more about the man that built C D Moody Construction, one of the largest construction firms in the country.

We caught up with Mr. Moody to find out more about him and his business.

C. David MoodyWhat inspired you to start your business?

I worked for some small construction companies and a very large construction company and this might sound strange, but it just kind of happened. I had reached a point where my wife and I said we don’t have anything to lose, so let’s give it a try. That is how it all happened. Our first office was our bedroom.

What is the most challenging and most rewarding thing about being an entrepreneur?

The most challenging is not giving up during times of struggle and despair. If married your spouse must be all in. My wife went back to school and became a registered nurse, so we could have a steady income.

The most rewarding is never missing a payroll in 32 years and knowing what we started as a dream has helped others create a great life for themselves. Giving back to help others is a great feeling.

You are pretty open about your childhood trauma. Why is it important for you to speak up about it?

I speak up because I remember suffering in silence about being a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. I had a complete emotional breakdown in 1992, and our business was only 4 years. I had to suffer in silence and I had to heal in secret. That cost me some valuable time in my business growth.

I don’t want anyone to suffer in silence from trauma. I want to help others heal and see they can not only survive but thrive. We will all be knocked to our knees in life. The good news we are stronger than we realize. We can and we will get up. I speak up so others know they are not alone on the journey of healing or life.

Former Atlanta Mayor Andrew Young (left) and David Moody.What do you attribute the growth and longevity of your company to?

I attribute my longevity to God having a plan for me to not only be a successful contractor but to use my platform to help others turn trauma into triumph.

The other reasons are my wife and I have never had an expensive lifestyle and I have loved architecture and construction since I was a child.

I am living a dream that I didn’t think would happen for me. I grew up in the 1960s. I didn’t see any Black contractors growing up.

What advice do you have for aspiring for success in the real estate/construction industry?

First, it must be your love. Money can’t be your focus. Focus on being excellent in your craft and the money will follow. Be present in life and have a blast every day. Be patient and enjoy life. Keep your faith strong and put positive energy into the universe. Don’t cut corners and honor your word. Never lie and let honesty guide your steps.

Princess Diana’s former chauffeur has broken a 30-year-silence about his royal service to tell how his life was ruined by rogue BBC reporter Martin Bashir falsely claiming he was leaking confidential information. In an exclusive interview with The Mail on Sunday, Steve Davies revealed how Bashir’s lies poisoned the Princess against him and destroyed his career as one of the Royal Family’s most trusted drivers. And he lambasted the Corporation for failing to tell him for years that he was another victim of the web of deceit Bashir spun to secure his 1995 Panorama interview with Diana.

Ministers are set to consider a coroner’s recommendations on ‘cancel culture’ at universities after a third-year Oxford student killed himself when he was ostracised by fellow undergraduates. Nicholas Graham is writing to the Department for Education over the death of Alexander Rogers, 20, who took his own life when he found himself frozen out by his friends in what appears to be a phenomenon sweeping campuses. The Oxford coroner is highlighting the findings of a serious incident review which found students could ‘rush to judgment without knowledge of all the facts’ and then ‘shun those accused’.

Is the Keir Starmer Cabinet a government of adults, or a collection of college activists who have never grown up? The new Tory leader, Kemi Badenoch, accused the Prime Minister outright of being a student politician during their first Commons clash last week, and the jibe seemed to hit home. It is not just that the Labour Government has been entangled in avoidable scandals because so many of its members were too immature – and so easily seduced by offers of luxury goods, free tickets and other shiny gifts.

Yes, it is fun watching silly Leftists wailing and gnashing their teeth over President Trump’s victory. It is yet more evidence that such people have no real idea what is going on in the world. But that does not prove that Mr Trump’s election is good news for the rest of us. Leave aside his deep personal unpleasantness, which is beyond dispute. Such nastiness is not unknown among Leftists and liberals. We have no real idea what he will do, because he does not know either. Despite being the most cunning politician in the English-speaking world since the death of the late Princess Diana, Mr Trump (like her) is not especially intelligent or well-informed. It is a sad fact of politics that the most astute people are seldom the brightest, while the cleverest are usually bad at the feral behaviour which gets yo to the top.

As a schoolgirl, growing up in a small Derbyshire village in the Noughties, Tia Billinger had big dreams. Dazzled by the stars burning bright in her young eyes, she lapped up reality TV shows such as Celebrity Big Brother, I’m A Celebrity and The X Factor.

As a schoolgirl, growing up in a small Derbyshire village in the Noughties, Tia Billinger had big dreams. Dazzled by the stars burning bright in her young eyes, she lapped up reality TV shows such as Celebrity Big Brother, I’m A Celebrity and The X Factor. This was exactly the kind of fame the pretty blonde teenager grew up craving; the kind that comes from exposure and hype rather than any discernible talent. To be fair, such a desire is hardly unusual among young people today. But Tia’s longing for fame and attention was to take her in an extreme, horrifying direction – one which, as the Mail has discovered this week, has been almost unbelievable for those who remember her as a sweet schoolgirl, utterly devoted to her privately educated long-term boyfriend.
