HC#010 Isaac buys a VERY SMALL window replacement company. Actually, it’s his dad’s and he wants Isaac to do the deal so he can retire six months from now. They’re both realizing that this may not be a very valuable business, so, can dad grow it enough in a few months for it to make sense for his son to pay big bux for it? If not, is there any value at all and how should we be thinking about the value of what is there. Even though it’s small, it would be easier to take it over than to start something from scratch.
