This VM is created for 2 reasons: 1. Very little initial setup work required to make WordPress live, within minutes. 2. This system should keep running for Years, without requiring Updates / Breakages.
If you are new to Virtual Machines, then please watch the Video below ( taken from my other project. just replace td with wp wherever mentioned )

Once setup & running, please ensure that a Backup of the system, is taken regularly, to avoid any issues.
