The 28-year-old social media star has made headlines by investing a remarkable $39 million in one of Georgia's premier properties, leveraging his earnings from the Mike Tyson fight to create a vast Southern escape encompassing nearly 6,000 acres. This historic enclave, known as Southlands Plantation in Decatur County, had been privately owned for nearly nine decades before hitting the market in October 2023 for $42.5 million—a price Paul successfully negotiated down with his boxing revenue. During an appearance on The Iced Coffee Hour podcast, Paul revealed a long-cherished dream of owning a ranch, stating, "It’s kind of been my dream and why I work so hard." Once transformed by conservationist Herbert Stoddard and enhanced by Rock Creek Capital’s Jim Dahl, the estate includes five miles of spring-fed creeks, a stocked fishing lake, and direct access to the expansive 37,500-acre Lake Seminole. Meanwhile, Tyson, his previous adversary, similarly invested in a luxurious $13 million waterfront mansion in Florida, marking successful post-fight ventures for both.
