    Try living well in this world without one see where it leads you. Christopher McCandless lived off the land and without a career but the only reason he survived one day was because he EDUCATED himself on what he needed to know. Unless you want to live without the love of a woman and a family,or...

    College

    Its the same thing either way. If all you want to depend on is magic,acting,modeling or any of the job that these people are implying that dont need a college/university education farther down the line it will all backfire on you.Your talent will be useless and you will not get any job because...

    If all one thinks is that he can use his "talents" to make a career and not need to go to school they will end up with nothing 30 years down the road. Eddie griffin has absolutely nothing to fall back on.He's going for broke. When Mickey rourke played the Wrester,is also a perfect example...

    Does flourishing kill card magic?

    A fool takes everyones advice.A bigger fool takes none. You cant disregard everyone and do only what "your heart" tells you. There is a median in this.

    Another misunderstanding on the type of effects he meant.

    Does flourishing kill card magic?

    Thats what you want if your going to use flourishes or a bit of cardistry. You dont want people to say "well if he can do that with cards,then he can do anything". You want the flourish to compliment the magic,not replace it. Which unfortunately I see done in most "street magic" videos these...

    Use the money to create well produced business cards and nice atttire to perform in when you get gigs. If your not interested in that,then buy all the tricks you want. If your a hobbyist performer at least buy some performance theory books.At least. No one needs so many gosh darn tricks.A few...

    Does flourishing kill card magic?

    Well on the post where you first quoted me I WAS talking only about sybils and XCM type card manipulation.Not flourishes no they werent dude. During his displays of skill(which happened twice at most) he got "ooh wow,so fast" in low voices.His cardistry did not cause the "flipping" out and...

    You guys are mistaking him. He is talking about card effects that have nothing to do with the cards themselves. Not anything like sandwiches,transps or monte. He means in the vein of Cinders by Dee or some that I have described. Maybe distortion is a bit like what he means too.

    The most powerful effect usiing playing cards

    What you have to remember is to not TRY to come up with an effect. Because if you think about it,youll end up overthinking the effect and you wind up at blank again. Let it come to you. Also,never never never think like a magician. Think in laymen terms. Or hell,ask laymen what kind of magic...

    The most powerful effect usiing playing cards

    Its hard to explain. One just figures these things out. You have to come up with the most impractical method of accomplishing it first of all. Then,improve on it and make it work for you. Of course,im not the type to want everything laid out for me like "impromptu" and "instant reset!!"...

    Does flourishing kill card magic?

    There are books on magic that condone busting out a sybil in a card effect? I havent seen a magic book published in recent years at all.And i mean a real book not PDF. If you mean flourishes like springs then yeah itll work well with your card tricks. Obvously you should look like you handled...

    I live with catholic mythology in my mind so these thoughts just come. Most ideas come from my own mind but at times from re-reading dantes inferno,paradise lost,hellboy,constantine,etc. I also have an effect where I freeze water around a playing card.Visually.instantly. Ironically,I came up...

    Yes,I did. I have to. I hate doing "pick a card" type tricks for the most part. Id rather use cards in a more interesting way.

    Definitely. And it doesnt help that blood seeps through my shirt slowly and outward where my heart is.(FYI The heart is in the center of your chest) Overkill? Maybe. But I get my point across.
