employees is measured as the excess, if any , of the quoted market price of the
Company's common stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must
pay to acquire the stock.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations Results of Operations

Quarter ended March 31, 2005 vs 2004:
- -------------------------------------
Revenue for the first quarter of 2005 decreased by $ 81,270 or 1.1% when
compared to the corresponding quarter of 2004. This decrease was due to a $
285,394 decrease in the sale of precious metal products, a $ 32,268 increase in
pawn service charges and a $ 171,856 increase in the sale of jewelry products.
The increase in jewelry sales was due to a nation wide improvement in the retail
environment. The decrease in precious metal sales was due to price stability in
the precious metal markets during the 2005 quarter. Pawn service fees increased
due to an increase in loan volume. Cost of sales decreased primarily due to the
decrease in sales. Gross margins increased from 19.8% in 2004 to 20.9% in 2005
due to the increase in sales of jewelry products.

Selling, general and administration expenses increased by $ 149,902 due an
increase in sales staff. Income taxes are provided at the corporate rate of 34%
for both 2005 and 2004

Loss from discontinued operations during 2004 in the amount of $ 31,995 net of
income taxes is the operating results of Silverman Consultants, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which was sold in August 2004.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The Company's short-term debt, including current maturities of long-term debt
totaled $2,727,661 as of March 31, 2005. The ability of the Company to finance
its operations and working capital needs are dependent upon management's ability
to negotiate extended terms or refinance its short-term debt. The Company has
historically renewed, extended or replaced short-term debt as it matures and
management believes that it will be able to do so in the future as short-term
debt matures.

Management of the Company expects capital expenditures to total approximately
$75,000 during the balance of 2005. It is anticipated that these expenditures
will be funded from working capital.

The Company entered into a financing agreement on March 31, 2005 with a
commercial bank that allows the Company to borrow at any time through March 31,
2006 up to $ 3,500,000 at the bank's prime Rate of interest plus 1/4%.
Borrowings under the financing agreement mature on March 31, 2006. The Company
borrowed $ 2,699,699 under this new credit facility in order to liquidate its
previous bank debt. The remaining portion of the new financing agreement is
available to the Company for working capital requirements.

From time to time, management has adjusted the Company's inventory levels to
meet seasonal demand or in order to meet working capital requirements.
Management is of the opinion that if additional working capital is required,
additional loans can be obtained from individuals or from commercial banks. If
necessary, inventory levels may be adjusted or a portion of the Company's
investments in marketable securities may be liquidated in order to meet working
capital requirements.

This report contains forward-looking statements which reflect the view of
Company's management with respect to future events. Although management believes
that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are
reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have
been correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from such expectations are a down turn in the current strong retail
climate and the potential for fluctuations in precious metals prices. The
forward-looking statements contained herein reflect the current views of the
Company's management and the Company assumes no obligation to update the
forward-looking statements or to update the reasons actual results could differ
from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The following discussion about the Company's market risk disclosures involves
forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those
projected in the forward-looking statements. The Company is exposed to market
risk related to changes in interest rates and gold values. The Company also is
exposed to regulatory risk in relation to its payday loans. The Company does not
use derivative financial instruments.

The Company's earnings and financial position may be affected by changes in gold
values and the resulting impact on pawn lending and jewelry sales. The proceeds
of scrap sales and the Company's ability to liquidate excess jewelry inventory
at an acceptable margin are dependent upon gold values. The impact on the
Company's financial position and results of operations of a hypothetical change
in gold values cannot be reasonably estimated.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including
our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we have
evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures within 90 days of the filing date of this quarterly
report, and, based on their evaluation, our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer have concluded that these controls and procedures
are effective. There are no significant changes in our internal controls or
other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the
date of their evaluation. Disclosure controls and procedures are our controls
and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified
in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls
and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we
file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
