If I can be brutally honest, I wouldn't worry about making any money from your magic just yet. You will find that people will be very reluctant to employ a magician of your age and there are also probably employment laws that would need thinking about.

The best thing for you to do right now would be to grab yourself a copy of Mark Wilson's complete course and learn that. Do some magic for friends and family, also look around and see if there are any charity variety shows near to you, they're usully happy to give people some time on stage. The main thing though is to learn and have fun.

If you're in London, you could join the http://www.youngmagiciansclub.co.uk/ which meets at The Magic Circle. No doubt there are similar clubs elsewhere.

Money is not everything buddy, get a good few tricks under your belt but study them get to know them and make sure you learn the history of the trick as well.
