I was wondering what age you all got into Mentalism and the age you were when you did your first show?
Just curious, may be interesting to see! I got into Mentalism around 17ish, currently 18 so I am still a young one . Euan

Let's see - I remember performing the Adam's Number Cards for my third grade class when I was about 8 years old. Veered towards mentalism very early. First paid show (mostly magic) when I was 12 (got paid $5.00!). Almost completely mentalism by the time I entered the Navy (age 19) and exclusively mentalism after I got out and went to work on the cruise ships (age 24)

I quit doing real telepathy at the age of 112, but that about 700 years ago when the printing press destroyed people's trust in magic and have them believing that a written opinion is better than a demonstrated one -- or so I tell my audiences. Since then I do pretend stuff because that's what folks expect.
the other answer is 11.

Bob, $5 is a lot of money for a 12 year old, think of all the sweets you could buy!
