MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

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

Quarter ended June 30, 1998 vs 1997:

Sales for the  second  quarter  of 1998  increased  $  1,154,419  or 48.4%  when
compared to the corresponding quarter of 1997. The increase was the result of an
increase in jewelry sales in the amount of $ 520,141 and an increase in precious
metals sales in the amount of $ 634,278.  Management believes that the Company's
Internet related activities had a significant impact on this sales growth.  Pawn
service fees  increased  by 27.8% due to an increase in pawn loans  outstanding.
During  the  second  quarter of 1998 the  Company  sold $ 237,090 of  marketable
securities realizing a gain of $ 76,706.  Unrealized gains on trading securities
in the  amount of $ 638,738  in 1998 and $ 575,726  in 1997 was the result of an
increase  in  the  market  value  of  the  Company's  investment  in  marketable
securities.  Cost of sales  increased by $ 946,989 due to the increase in sales.
Consulting  service cost decreased by $ 43,710 during the second quarter of 1998
due to lower travel cost and related.

General and administration  expenses increased by $ 143,265 primarily due higher
health insurance,  advertising and payroll cost.  Depreciation expense increased
by $ 7,433 due to depreciation on assets placed in service during 1997 and 1998.

During 1997 the Company  discontinued  the  operations of Dallas Global  Travel,
Inc. and Eye Media, Inc. The operating results of these discontinued  operations
during the second  quarter of 1997 were a net loss of $ 34,700  which was offset
by a tax benefit in the amount of $ 49,000.


Six months ended June 30, 1998 vs 1997:

Sales  increased  by $ 1,326,397  or 26.0 % during the six months ended June 30,
1998 compared to the corresponding  period of 1997. This increase was the result
of an $ 805,083  increase in jewelry sales and a $ 521,314  increase in precious
metals sales. Management believes that the Company's Internet related activities
had a significant  impact on this sales growth.  Pawn service fees  increased by
36.8% due to an  increase  in pawn loans  outstanding.  During the first half of
1998 the Company sold $ 267,068 of marketable  securities  realizing a gain of $
74,415.  Unrealized gains on trading  securities in the amount of $ 1,009,483 in
1998 and $ 778,950 in 1997 was the result of an increase in the market  value of
the Company's investment in marketable securities.  Cost of sales increased by $
1,024,849 due to the increase in sales.  Consulting  service cost decreased by $
20,769 during the first half of 1998 due to lower travel cost and related.

Results of Operations, continued...
- -----------------------------------

General and administration expenses increased by $ 204,881 during the first half
of 1998 due to higher health insurance, advertising and payroll cost.

During 1997 the Company  discontinued  the  operations of Dallas Global  Travel,
Inc. and Eye Media, Inc.. The operating results of these discontinued operations
during the first half of 1997 were a net loss in the amount of $ 93,521,  net of
a $ 49,000 tax benefit.




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  half of 1998,  cash and cash
equivalents  decreased by $ 820,542  primarily as a result of decreases in notes
payable ($ 210,000), a decrease in accrued expenses ($ 153,998),  an increase in
inventory ($ 266,314), and purchases of common treasury stock ($ 77,203).

Management of the Company  expects capital  expenditures to total  approximately
$85,000 during 1998. 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.
