On a Break
After 13+ years of blogging I’ve decided to take a break for awhile, and I’m not sure when or if I will start things up again. Any new content will be posted to my YouTube channel. Please subscribe to this channel for any updates. I appreciate all the community support over the years but for now its time to do something different.
Why is vmexplorer on a break?
Last August 2023 I spent 2 weeks working at the non-profit Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vegas. I really enjoyed my time there fixing machines and working with their great customers. I learned that they give away 95% of their profits to local non-profits in need. Over the owners lifetime, he estimates a total of 30 Million dollars will have been donated all through the use of his personal pinball and arcade style game collection. For him it all started with a gumball machine and he worked + saved his way up.
This really got me thinking about what I could possibly do for my community. I love pinball/arcade games and I love helping non-profits, so why not see what impact I could have. Last fall 2023 I decided to create a business that would donate a portion of their proceeds to local non-profits in my community. This company is called amAZing Enterprises. Our plan is to raise funds through the deployment of Candy Machines, Arcade Gaming, and Green Screen Photos. In turn we donate a portion of our profits to help out non-profit organizations. We landed our first location at our local Ford Dealership and they were so happy to help our company start out. Soon we’ll be partnered with other non-profits and will grow our business.
So, its a start and its something I enjoy putting my free time into. Again, I’m always glad to respond to technical questions or comments from a reader, so do reach out.
