Tax Return Time

[Dylan P.]

Well, it's finally here. That time of the year when the government gives us all the money they took from our checks that they wern't supposed to have back. I got my W-2 today and this is my first tax return. I wil be getting my simplfied tax form sometime during the week. I am fourteen almost fifteen and have been workingfor one year and my estimated tax return is 318$. That's not too bad for a fourteen year old kid.

But here is my question.... what are all you adults and/or working kids going to do with you tax return cash???

Personally if I get 300 I'll set it aside and save up another 200. then when I have a total of 500 buck I will purchase:

True Astonishments- 300
A Porper Clip- 30
A Close Up Mat- 30
Distortion- 35
Panic- 35
Some Guardians- 15
Some Ghosts- 15
Some Slpit Spade Lions- 15

15 for shipping and what not.

(NOTE: I rounded up al the prices.)

PS: Does anyone know if T11 will be getting anymore smoke and mirrors?

Enjoy your return. It may be the last one americans with jobs get for 4 years.

As far as what I will be spending my return on:
If corporate bookings don't pick up... food and shelter.

Smoke and Mirrors are currently out of print with no plans to re-print as of now.

True Astonishments- 300
A Close Up Mat- 30

List pared down to the stuff that's really worth it. Save the rest of the cash.

In the meantime:

This tax season I'm more concerned with making sure all of my deductibles go through.

how is that political or store bought? its pretty common that Tax breaks are almost always only given as the President is taking office on that year, and that the following 4 years he seeks other economic strategies other than the breaks. especially with the republican's out of the way.

steerpike's constant negativity and berating everyone on these forums for having idea's that are different than his.

as for the list, id say TA, a close up pad and a porper are all good investments and then id pick one trick either Panic or Distortion (the one you feel is more powerful and your style) and get that and work on it till its perfect instead of two gimmicked tricks that will need work to make impressive.

I know 2 places what still have S&M's in stock, but they're UK stores

 

[MagicShadow9]

Wait, where do you work? Cuz i'm fourteen and i'm looking for a job too but every store only hires people fifteen or older.

 

[Deleted member 2755]

When did T11 sell out of S&M?

Also, don't D&D still have S&M in stock?

Also, isn't there going to be a 3rd edition? Maybe that is why they are sold out.

Doug, D&D have ran out aswell. I'm contemplating getting some more S&M's but I don't have much money spare, and I really want andthensome

He's not doing that. He is challenging you to think. A crucial part inlife. He wants you to think for yourself and figure things out. He may come a cross as harsh but that might be what it takes to get ou people to think. All he wants you to do is have research and proof before you speak.

A grocery store called Star Market. It is techinically owned by Shaw's. However I live in Massachusetts and our gorocery stres do not carry alcohol. If yours do then you will be unable to get a job there until you are 16.

I will send a note of apology as soon as your opinion means something to me.

To keep a tissue-thin veil of productivity to the proceedings, don't bother buying single trick packages. Not for now, that is. In fact, if you must buy anything after True Astonishments, best to invest in a book on performance theory.

Some are going to find this exceedingly strange, but on my list ahead of Strong Magic and Maximum Entertainment is "An Actor Prepares" by Stanislovsky.

I don't have any new books to get till Say November then after that it's Totally out of Control. Right now I am working on Bobo, Strong Magic and finishing up Card College and then will most likely spend a month or so going over the books again just to refresh my memory.
