No real restrictions, just remember that these are not superpowers, just real world talents. You would be famous as well, but you don't have to live in the limelight if you don't want to.

I bet they do. You can pick up major action with your magic tricks.

Musician in this case but my initial thought was magician but you mean the dumb fake kind that does tricks and not the real kind that does magic.

The coolest thing Houdini ever did was die.

You're still human though and if you're the /best/ magician you'll end up doing dangerous things quite often (or at least that's what I think lol). The best musician just has to make and play music.

The best magician can probably play it safe(-er)

Hard choice. I've always loved magic, but I'm very passionate about music and it's one of my most valued and treasured things about life. Gonna go with magician though. If you've ever watched the movie The Prestige, my reasoning could be summed by one of the final lines:

You never understood why we did this. The audience knows the truth: the world is simple. It's miserable, solid all the way through. But if you could fool them, even for a second, then you can make them wonder, and then you... then you got to see something really special. You really don't know? It was... it was the look on their faces...

Magician, because it's more entertaining and you can get a much better reaction from fans. Plus being a magician is probably less repetitive than a musician since they aren't stuck doing their greatest hits as often and can vary their acts a bit more.

Even Penn Jilette got a lot of pussy and he's not even close to being a good-looking guy.

Today's richest and most famous ones aren't the ones that will be best viewed in history. Also, who's the musician equivalent of Harry Houdini?

I'm not interested in doing a life of performances, and there is a huge temptation I'm having.

I'd choose magician, and I'd be an art thief.

What qualities of Harry Houdini are you trying to emphasize? If you just mean "being most people's top choice for *insert thing*", that's more a symptom of people's inabilities to name many magicians at all than it is him being better at magic than the top musicians are at music.

Musician but you people are seriously underselling magicians. People still think it's cool as shit even though it's not really something you see too often these days. But I know for a fact that if you're capable of doing some neat magic tricks, people will be impressed and to have the confidence and showmanship to have a great magic act, you need to have a very attractive personality.

Like take this guy for example. Dude's cooler than anyone here.

I love this show. Cool trick too.
