Hello,
Recently I found out about the Uber Goat. Naturally I want one. I have no idea how to acquire it. As it is a fate item the wiki provides little help. If someone could point me in the right direction I'd be much obliged.

Start with getting a second Overgoat. From there, trust the will of your goats. An opportunity will arise.

If you chose the conscience of empire, one of the rebel support actions provides correspondence plaques. You can still do it if you sided with the masters I believe, it just raises your turncoat pseudo-menace.

I think the Collection of Curiosity trade in on the Tomb-Colonist is that lucrative.
Not likely to draw that card 144 times in a day, though. You only need to draw it slightly more than four times every day to complete each 35 Action cycle. But that's a fair point, as you're only likely to draw it maybe once every day, on average. If you draw a lot of cards that is, and don't just check in every 6 hours to spend your 36-40 Actions from an Exceptional Friendship. Then it's harder to get any specific card.
If you're only grinding for goats on the side, while doing other stuff as well, then it works out rather nicely. It's how I approach just about every Fallen London activity. They're all Marathons of one variety or another, so I try to go for maximum efficiency instead of maximum effectiveness. Instead of single-mindedly heading towards one goal while excluding all others, I try to identify and pounce on the best opportunities that come along. And then, when I need something special, well, look what accumulated in the corner while I was mostly doing something else? Echoes! Resources! An Overgoat? Well, no. Not yet...
For a grind which doesn't rely on cards there is the University investigation used to raid message drops in the Flit. It gives about 1.78 Echoes per Action. But I guess a lot of people who might consider getting an Übergoat would've already completed the University tales and lost access to the investigation storylet. But if not, there's the repeatable grind that's better than any other. Unless you want to increase a stat that isn't Watchful while making your Echoes. It's not very good for that.

The Gang of Hoodlums card isn't that bad. It has a 1.5 echoes/action option.
