           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Quarter ended March 31, 1997 vs 1996:

Sales for the first quarter of 1997  increased  $84,854 or 3.2% when compared to
the  corresponding  quarter of 1996. The increase was primarily the result of an
increase in precious  metals  sales in the amount of $85,698.  Pawn service fees
decreased  by 26.8% due to a decline in pawn loans  outstanding.  Travel  agency
income  decreased  by  $313,005  due to the  retirement  of the  Company's  most
productive outside sales agent.  Consulting service income increased by $170,566
due to a fee earned relating to the  recapitalization  of an new client.  During
the first  quarter of 1997 the Company sold  $534,159 of  marketable  securities
realizing  a gain of  $37,158.  Unrealized  gains on trading  securities  in the
amount of $203,224 in 1997 was the result of an increase in the market  value of
the Company's investment in marketable securities. Interest income in the amount
of  $5,446  during  1997 was the  result  of  interest  earned  on money  market
accounts.  Cost of sales  increased by $76,418  primarily due to the increase in
sales. Travel agency costs decreased by $301,657 due to the $313,005 decrease in
income. Consulting service cost increased by $10,187 during the first quarter of
1996 due to an increase in travel cost.

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

Due to the somewhat seasonal nature of the Company's jewelry business, inventory
and trade  receivables  are at their lowest  levels on December 31 of each year.
During the first half of each year jewelry  inventory is  replenished  and trade
receivables  begin to increase.  During the first quarter of 1996, cash and cash
equivalents decreased by $167,562 primarily as a result of decreases in accounts
payable  ($284,517),  a decrease in accrued expenses  ($95,767) and purchases of
common treasury stock  ($148,472).  Theses uses of cash were partially offset by
the sale of $534,1589 in marketable securities.

Management of the Company  expects capital  expenditures to total  approximately
$75,000 during 1997. It is anticipated  that these  expenditures  will be funded
from the Company's current working capital position.

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 by
the  Company,  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 unforseen working capital requirement.
