How's that working out for you? That is something I wanted to get into a loooong time ago, but never had the money to get started and when I had the money to do it I was on the road all the time doing what I do now. Now I have the money and time to do it with where I'm working now. What kind of profit are you bringing in? Or better yet, what kind of profit did you bring in when you started off doing it?

My father started the business back in the day when galaga was the game to play..so things have changed a fair bit in terms of % return from the machines them selves.....If you buy a few of your own machines and operate them you can make some good money with little over heads..For me its a case of 5 full time techs fixing the machines 2 full time and 1 part time colletion ppl and 50 casual staff so my over heads are huge....As for profit that all depends on the game, location and Prizes if it a merchandising machine.

HAHA..It's all good. I was just almost making it a verification for myself. But I was certain it was called a wife beater. And Panda, The reason they are referred to as Wife Beaters is because the African American portion of the US (when the Wife Beater wasn't really worn by everybody in the world), they would beat their wifes with them to set them straight. Or beat their hoes if they weren't making enough cash.

I thought that it was because alot of the hispanic community wears them, and thats a stereotype of hispanic males
