In this episode, the hosts dissect a truly odd listing — a duck decoy manufacturing business for sale in Canada for just $5,999 CAD. With reported gross revenues of $500,000 and earnings of $25,000 (from 2018), the team explores if this could be a garage-cleanout or a diamond in the rough. From foreign exchange confusion to speculation about what's actually being sold, this episode highlights the weird, wonderful, and often questionable world of micro-acquisitions.

Key Highlights:

- A Canadian duck decoy business priced at just ~$4,300 USD
- Earnings based on outdated 2018 data
- Speculation on whether it’s a hobby, real business, or inventory liquidation
- Discussion on 5% margins and the dangers of thin profit businesses
- Why side hustles can be a great launchpad for new entrepreneurs
- Thoughts on niche e-commerce and Craigslist deal hunting
