You know magic is cool. It looks cool and feels cool to do. But there are a couple of reasons you may not have considered: 

6. Almost everybody loves to watch good magic so if you know a couple of good tricks you’re sure to find an audience.
5. With thousands and thousands of tricks it’s easy to do magic that your friends have never seen before.
4. If you have a deck of cards laying around, wherever you are, you have a whole act ready to go.
3. There are so few magicians that a performance of close up magic is a rare treat for people. Get out there and perform!
2. You don’t have to study for years to do magic. There is plenty of magic that only takes a few minutes practice.
1. When you are out on the town, if you have a cool trick in your pocket you’ll always have an icebreaker that will enable you to talk to anyone in the room.
