ok well i guess im not use to the subways and such, also movie theater cost the same here, and yea i will look around online in new york papers and such. i would definatly need a good job for 1200 a month, everything else i think is good. thanks for the help. and so are you saying telling the casino your a magician might get them to hire you? i would love working in a casino. 
except for drunks. :'(
Skilled sleight-of-hand artists are used by casinos as table security, monitoring the card tables for cheats - players and dealers alike - either on the floor or in the surveillance room. Good performers of all kinds are always in demand in a casino for entertaining the guests. Don't expect to get rich, though...
I hear casino pay is better-than-average, though. I knew a guy who worked security at the one near my home.
