Even if a plane ticket costs 2.5 K return, they make well over 5000 dollars... in Aus for 12 hours of work ... Think about it... Hot women + Nice beaches + Interested Magicians = 2500$ profit for 1 weeks stay? I would certainly do it if I were in their shoes, concidering that T11 hypes it up like they do to Waynes lecture at illusions.
Plus, the exchange rate too.. which I admit isn't really that big of a deal these days considering we aren't too far away from beating America in that sense, but still.
