I was just curious to get everyone’s opinion. There is this restaurant in a tiny town today basically just one restaurant and one gas station town. About 30 minutes away is the actual town with the McDonald’s and Walmart lol. The lady said she was selling the restaurant because she could not hire enough staff.

Reasonably enough when I drove by today it had 30 people parked out front this morning so it’s not a lack of business. The orders were taking about 45 minutes,It is the closest restaurant to an extremely popular national park. I think I might try to buy this restaurant am I crazy? I mean yes I know I’m crazy but I think this lady just isn’t thinking straight.
