GENERAL

     American Asset Management Corporation (the "Company"),
conducts its business through two wholly-owned subsidiaries,
Capital Financial Corp.("Capital"), a licensed mortgage banking
company in New Jersey and American Asset Development Corporation
("Development"), which is engaged in the development of
residential real estate for sale in New Jersey. Unless otherwise
indicated, all references to the Company in this report include
the Company and its subsidiaries.

HISTORY OF THE COMPANY

     The Company was incorporated on July 1, 1988 to engage in
real estate financing and investing.  In October 1988, the
Company became a limited partner of Murray Hill Estates at
Franklin, L.P. ("Murray Hill"), a New Jersey limited partnership
established for the purpose of acquiring a property ("Property")
located in Hunterdon County, New Jersey.  In January 1990, the
Company was elected successor general partner of Murray Hill for
the purpose of obtaining subdivision approvals necessary to
develop the property owned by Murray Hill.  In February 1992,
Murray Hill received preliminary approval for the subdivision of
the Property.  SEE BUSINESS - AMERICAN ASSET DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATION.

     In July 1992, the Company formed Development which acquired
substantially all of the assets of Murray Hill in exchange for an
aggregate of 29,600 shares of Common Stock of the Company and the
assumption of all of the liabilities of Murray Hill.

     In July 1989, the Company formed American Asset Mortgage
Corporation ("Mortgage") to provide mortgage banking services in
New Jersey.

     In July 1991, the Company acquired all of the outstanding
stock of Capital Financial Corp., a New Jersey licensed mortgage
banking company.  In June 1992, Capital was merged with and into
Mortgage and the name of the surviving subsidiary was changed to
Capital Financial Corp.

     In June 1998, the Company completed the private sale of
230,000 shares of its Common Stock at $3.00 per share to a small
number of institutional and other accredited investors.  These
investors were granted certain "piggy back" registration rights
with respect to the shares sold in the offering.

    On July 1, 1998 holders of the Company's Series A, 5%
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock converted all 68,750
shares of the Preferred Stock outstanding into 137,500 shares of
no par value Common Stock.  Accordingly the Company paid the last
semi-annual dividend to the holders of the preferred shares on
that date.


BUSINESS - CAPITAL FINANCIAL CORP.

     The Company, through Capital, is primarily engaged in
mortgage banking activities which involves the origination and
sale of residential first mortgage loans collateralized by one to
four family homes.  The Company's service area is the State of
New Jersey and to date, its revenues have primarily consisted of
loan origination fees and interest received on mortgage loans
made primarily for the construction of single family residences.
Capital acts either as a "banker" or as a "banker acting as a
broker".  When acting as a banker, Capital closes loans in its
own name.  When acting as a broker, Capital does not make
mortgage loans or close loans in its own name, but receives
compensation at closing from the borrower for assisting in
obtaining a mortgage from a third party investor (purchaser of
the mortgage) and/or from the investor for referring the loan to
such investor.

     Capital originates mortgage loans through direct
solicitation of borrowers by its own sales force, through media
advertising in its service area and through referrals from
mortgage bankers, credit unions, real estate brokers, accountants
and attorneys.  Borrowers submit loan applications which are
processed by the Company's loan processors who conduct credit
checks, arrange for the property to be appraised and submit
fully processed loan application packages to potential investors
for final approval and commitment.  After an investor commits to
purchase the loan, the Company either uses its own funds, its
warehouse line of credit as discussed below, to fund and close
the loan or has the loan funded by the investor.  The loan
documentation is then prepared and the loan is closed in
Capital's name at which time it is simultaneously assigned to the
investor.  When Capital closes a loan with its own funds, or its
warehouse line of credit, the loan is delivered to the investor
after the closing for purchase.

     The Company generally sells its loans on a loan-by-loan
basis to mortgage investors, primarily savings banks.  The
Company estimates that generally 85% of its loan applications
close within 90 days from the date of application.  During 1999,
the Company sold 56, 29, and 19 of its 233 closed loans
(24%, 11%, and 8%), to three investors, which included
one savings bank and two mortgage bankers.  The Company believes
that there are numerous other investors to which the Company
could readily sell its loans if, for any reason, it was unable to
sell its loans to the above investors.  As of March 24, 2000,
the Company had agreements with approximately 25 investors, to
which the Company may sell its loans or refer applications to.

     In May 1995, the Company obtained a $5,000,000 warehouse
line of credit from a mortgage warehouse lender which provides
the Company with a facility to borrow funds secured by originated
residential mortgage loans which will be temporarily warehoused
and then sold.  The warehouse line of credit is secured by the
personal guarantees of the Company's President and Executive Vice
President.  The Company will borrow only against takeout
commitments issued by qualified investors who have pre-approved
the loans and committed to purchase the closed loan from the
Company.  By using the warehouse funds instead of table funding,
the Company has generally been able to receive more favorable
pricing from its investors which the Company believes has made it
more competitive in the market place.  The warehouse line has
also allowed the Company to sell loans to investors which do not
table fund and only purchase closed loans from correspondents.
As of December 31, 1997 the warehouse credit line was reduced to
$2,500,000 and in July 1998, the amount was returned to
$5,000,000.  As of March 24, 2000, the interest rate charged to
the Company on borrowed warehouse funds outstanding is variable
at 2% over the prime lending rate as quoted by the Wall Street
Journal. As of December 31, 1999 the Company had no outstanding
borrowings on this credit line which will expire on May 10, 2000.
Further, the Company does not intend on renewing this credit line
when it expires. During October 1999, the Company received a
commitment from another warehouse credit line lender to provide
the Company with an additional warehouse credit line in the
amount of $5,000,000 at an interest rate which varies between 2
1/2% and 3 1/2% over the Prime 1 Commercial Paper Rate.  The
Company closed on this credit line during December 1999 but did
not commence utilization of it until January 2000.  The Company
received an additional $5,000,000 warehouse credit line in
October 1999 at 1 3/4% above the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate.

     As a result of a general increase in mortgage interest rates
during 1999, the Company saw a reduction in mortgage
refinancings.  This market which had been in a general decline
since its three year peak in December 1994; continued to be less
significant to the Company during 1997 and began to revive during
1998.  However, during the 1995 period, Capital implemented other
methods of securing purchase loan originations, including those
discussed below which, to a certain extent, has lessened the
Company's dependence on mortgage refinancings.

     In March 1996, the Company hired a Senior Vice
President/Sales Manager with 11 years of mortgage banking
experience to expand its commissioned sales personnel and to
assist management in expanding the Company's relationships with
additional sources of mortgage loan applications.  During October
1999, this person resigned and in November 1999, the Company
hired a Senior Vice President with approximately 7 years mortgage
industry experience as his replacement. He is responsible for
secondary marketing, wholesale and internet development and will
assist management in the day-to-day operations of the Company.

     In October 1996, the Company entered into an agreement to
offer its mortgage products on an electronic network system
of thirty-one mortgage bankers which originated
applications through a real estate broker branch office system
located throughout New Jersey.  The applications were forwarded
to Capital for processing and closing.  The Company compensated
the network of originators with a commission based on
closed loans originated by the network.  The Company believes it
was one of approximately twelve lenders which offered mortgage
products through this system.  In February 1997, the network was
acquired by another network which operated in a similar manner
to the original network. In July 1997, the Company became a
lender on this new network.  Both networks operated in a similar
manner but continued as separate entities until July 1997 at
which time a majority of the mortgage bankers from the acquired
network were terminated. Since July, the Company continues to
receive business from former mortgage network personnel of the
original network.  In August 1997, the Company entered into an
agreement with a new network which was formed as an independent
unit by former network mortgage banking originators. During 1999,
the Company continued to receive mortgage loans from the network.
There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these
relationships as it faces intense competition from the other
lenders it competes with for this business, many of which have
greater resources and experience than the Company.


BUSINESS - AMERICAN ASSET DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION

     In May 1992, Development was incorporated as a New Jersey
corporation to acquire Murray Hill, obtain final subdivision
approval, complete physical improvements to the Property and sell
the subdivided lots.  The principal asset acquired by Development
from Murray Hill in July 1992, was approximately 40 acres of
undeveloped land located in Franklin Township, Hunterdon County,
New Jersey.  In connection with the acquisition of Murray Hill,
Development assumed an existing liability of a loan payable to
Development's parent company which was secured by a first
mortgage on the Property in the principal amount of $667,575 as
of June 1, 1992.  Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company
transferred the mortgage receivable in the amount of $675,326 to
Capital.  Development continued to seek final subdivision
approval from authorities, which was received in October 1993,
subject to completing certain improvements or by posting
performance bonds or a letter of credit in lieu thereof.

     In August 1994, the Company received a commitment from a
commercial bank for two lines of credit aggregating $700,000,
consisting of a $250,000 site improvement loan and a $450,000
revolving line of credit to finance construction of up to three
residences in the subdivision.  The site improvement loan which
closed in November 1994, and was refinanced through a different
institution in December 1996, is secured by a first
mortgage on the development and was also secured by the personal
guarantees of the Company's President and Executive Vice
President.  The interest rate on the site improvement loan was
the bank's prime interest rate plus 1% and was payable monthly.
The loan was paid in full and extinguished during October 1998.

     In February 1995, the Company entered into a revised
contract of sale for a lot included in the Property containing an
uninhabitable farmhouse and a fieldstone barn for $148,000, of
which payments of $10,000 were received.  At closing, the Company
received an additional $5,000 and agreed to provide the purchaser
a one-year interest only first mortgage in the principal amount
of $133,000 bearing interest at 9 1/2%.   The Company transferred
title to the purchaser in April 1997.  In May 1997, the Company
sold the mortgage, without recourse, to a non-affiliate of the
Company for $110,000.
     In March 1995, the Company entered into a contract to sell
one three (3) acre building lot for $125,000, for which a down
payment of $25,000 was received.  Under the terms of the
contract, the Company agreed to finance $100,000 of the purchase
price for six months, without interest, to be secured by a first
mortgage and personal note on the lot securing the buyers
obligation to the Company.

     In May 1995, the Company agreed to sell an additional five
and one half (5 1/2) acre building lot to the same individual it
contracted to sell a lot to during March 1995,  for the sum of
$100,000. The Company received a nonrefundable deposit of
$50,000.  In December 1995, the Company received a letter from
the individual requesting to void the contract for the 5 1/2 acre
lot and to apply the $50,000 deposit to the March 1995 contract
for the 3 acre lot resulting in a total deposit on the 3 acre lot
of $75,000 with a balance due the Company of $50,000 at closing
of title.  During January 1996, the Company consented to the
request and title on this lot was transferred to the buyer during
August 1998.  At this time the Company also provided the buyer
with a $330,000 credit line secured by a five month first
mortgage on the property and its improvements and the personal
guarantee of the buyer.  The first $75,000 of the total credit
line provided was a purchase money mortgage taken back by the
Company on the land.  The remaining $225,000 is for the
construction costs of a new single family home which was
completed during the fourth quarter of 1999.  The terms of the
mortgage required monthly interest only payments to the Company.
The mortgage matured in January 1999 and was extended by the
Company until April 1999.  During the third quarter of 1999 the
mortgage became delinquent and the Company declared it in
default.  During January 2000, the Company filed a complaint in
foreclosure and for possession against the borrower in relation
to the outstanding mortgage receivable.  The mortgage was settled
and paid in full during February 2000 and all claims against the
borrower were dismissed by the Company.

     In January 1996, the Company entered into a contract to sell
to a real estate development corporation, 5 building lots which
range in size from 3 to 5 1/2 acres for a total purchase price of
$487,500.  The Company received a total of $340,000 in
nonrefundable deposits and in December 1996 the contract was
cancelled and the related deposit was converted to 34,000 shares
of Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock of the
Company.

     In August 1996, the Company entered into a contract to sell
one 3 acre building lot for $110,000 of which a down payment of
$11,000 was received.  The contract was amended in September 1996
to provide for cancellation and the return of the buyers deposit
in the event the Company is unable to transfer title on a fully
approved single family building lot.  In addition, during
September 1996 the Company, through Capital, agreed to provide
the buyer of this lot with a Construction/Permanent mortgage
loan to construct a single family residence.  The Company closed
title to this lot during February 1997 and construction commenced
utilizing the services of an affiliate of the Company to act as
General Contractor.  The affiliate company is majority owned by a
director of the Company.  The construction of the house was
completed in July 1997.

     In October 1996, the Company received approval of and
accepted a commitment issued by a commercial bank for a
construction mortgage financing line of credit in the amount of
$550,000.  In December 1996, the Company closed on the
construction mortgage financing line of credit in the amount of
$550,000.  The loan provides a letter of credit in the amount of
$111,583 which the Company assigned and deposited in escrow with
municipal authorities during January 1997 to guarantee Franklin
Township adequate funds to complete the balance of required site
improvements on the Property if the Company fails to complete the
required improvements.  The mortgage loan further provided
$430,417 which was used to refinance the mortgage loan which was
on the property, funds to complete the balance of required site
improvements and provided an interest reserve.  The loan was due
one year from the closing date, however, the bank at the request
of the Company had extended the term through July 1998.  The
letter of credit was extended for two additional one year periods
first to December 1998 and then to December 1999.  During the
fourth quarter 1998, the Company requested that the municipal
authorities reduce the amount of the letter of credit because
most of the improvements to the property had been completed by
the Company.  During March 1999, the Company received a
resolution executed by municipal authorities granting the
Company's request to reduce the letter of credit to $39,000.
The mortgage loan had been secured by the personal guarantees of
the Company's President and Executive Vice President.

     In February, March and June 1997, the Company transferred
title to and received payment in full on 3 unimproved building
lots to 3 non-affiliates of the Company in the amount of $97,500,
$110,000 and $110,000 respectively.  Proceeds from these sales
were used to pay down mortgage debt owed to a commercial bank and
the balance provided working capital to the Company.  On the
first two of three lots sold, the Company arranged construction
financing through Capital and construction management through an
affiliate of the Company.  The homes were completed by July of
1997.

     In January 1998, the Company executed a contract of sale for
an additional lot in the amount of $110,000 and received $11,000
as a deposit.  In April 1998, the Company received an additional
deposit of $70,000 bringing the total deposit to $81,000.  In
October 1998, the Company received the balance of the purchase
price and transferred title to this lot to the purchaser.  The
Company arranged construction financing through Capital, however,
construction management is through a non-affiliate of the
Company.
     In July 1998, the Company executed a contract of sale for a
building lot in the amount of $120,000 and received $12,000 as an
initial deposit.  The Company closed on the sale and transferred
title to the purchaser of this lot during September 1998.

     In August 1999, the Company entered into an agreement to
sell one of its building lots for $149,000.  At that time the
Company received a $1,000 deposit.  During October 1999, the
Company received an additional deposit of $13,900.  The Company
agreed to provide the purchase of this lot with an approved
septic design as a condition of sale.  Accordingly, the septic
design approval was granted by municipal authorities, the Company
received the full balance due and transferred title to this lot
in February 2000.

     In August 1999, the Company entered into an agreement to
sell one of its building lots and to construct a single family
residence.  The Company received a $1,000 deposit and with a
balance due of $38,700 upon approval of final construction plans
and specifications.  In November, 1999 the Company was informed
by the buyers architect that the final blueprints were completed.
In February 2000, the Company was informed that the buyer wished
to cancel the contract of sale and accordingly, the Company
returned the $1,000 deposit to the buyers thereby cancelling the
contract.

     On March 3, 2000, the Company entered into a contract to
sell one of its building lots and construct a single family
residence for approximately $480,000.  As of March 24, 2000 the
contract is in attorney review.  The Company expects that the
contract will be approved and construction will commence during
April 2000.  The terms of the contract provide for a $1,000
deposit which is currently being held in escrow by the buyer's
realtor and the balance of approximately $47,000 is to be paid
within 10 days of contract approval.  This deposit is to be
released to the Company upon mortgage approval and the Company's
President has personally guaranteed the deposit in the event of
default by the Company.  The buyers have applied for a mortgage
through a non-affiliate of the Company.  The contract further
provides for an additional buyers deposit of approximately
$73,400 be paid at the time of closing when title to the
residence is transferred to the buyers from the Company and the
remainder of the purchase price is to be paid to the Company with
the proceeds of a mortgage loan.

     During the fiscal year ending December 31, 1999, the Company
continued marketing its services to the public through the
Internet using its website home page on a major website belonging
to a national provider of mortgage loans and other financial
statistics.  The Company's website provides the public with its
lending programs and interest rates on a daily basis, in addition
to the rates of other lenders that the Company competes with.
During the fiscal year ending December 31, 1999, the Company has
received numerous inquiries which have resulted in mortgage loan
applications from persons seeking mortgage financing.

     The Company continues to be encouraged with the results the
Internet has provided as an additional source of mortgage
applications and is currently in the process of updating its own
website.  Once the changes have been made, the Company's website
will be linked to its homepage on the national provider's
website, providing potential customers with an on line mortgage
application and streamlined internet mortgage approval process.
The Company expects to complete these website changes early in
the second quarter 2000.  In addition, the Company has identified
and is seeking to link its website with other national and
regional websites that provide mortgage rate listings and
information to potential customers.

     To date, the number of domestic mortgages originated over
the Internet, relative to the total mortgage origination market
is very small.  In 1998, industry wide only 0.7% of total
mortgage originations were generated via the Internet.  However,
according to certain mortgage banking industry sources, by the
year 2005 the Internet could comprise 25% to 30% of total
mortgage originations.  The Company's marketing strategy is to
supplement its current personal relationship based origination
business with marketing conducted over the Internet.  There can
be no assurance that the Company will be successful in the future
in using the Internet as a source of mortgage loan applications.

     During the first quarter of 1999, the Company applied for
a license as a mortgage banker in the State of Connecticut and is
considering applying for mortgage banking licenses in other
states.  The Company's license was approved by the State of
Connecticut in June of 1999.  During June 1999, the Company made
an application to license itself as a mortgage banker of second
mortgages in the State of New Jersey.  In July 1999, the license
was approved.  There can be no assurance that the Company will
apply for or be granted licenses in any additional states.

     The Company utilizes one of its $5,000,000 warehouse lines
of credit for its daily mortgage loan funding operations.
However, whenever possible the Company employs its available cash
to fund mortgage loans since the use of available cash generates
mortgage interest income, as well as saves interest costs and
other fees associated with the Company utilizing its warehouse
credit line. This warehouse line is maintained with a mortgage
warehouse lender which enables the Company to borrow funds
secured by residential mortgage loans that are temporarily
accumulated or warehoused and then sold. At December 31, 1999,
the Company had borrowed $234,024 from its warehouse line of
credit which represented one closed loan ready for sale.

     As of March 24, 2000, the Company owns 3 unimproved building
lots in its Hunterdon County, New Jersey real estate development
and has one contract of sale pending.  In September 1998, the
Board of Directors authorized the Company to build up to two, at
any one time, single family, colonial style homes on the lots, on
speculation and offer them for sale to prospective buyers.  The
Company believes that construction costs for each home to be
built will be approximately $225,000 and it will afford it a
better opportunity to obtain a profit from the transaction then
if it sold an undeveloped lot.  Although there can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in this
undertaking, the Company has retained an on-site construction
manager who is a non-affiliate of the Company, to assist the
Company in this construction project and in December 1999
construction was completed on one house.


SEASONALITY

     The mortgage banking industry and the sale of new homes and
building lots is generally subject to seasonal trends which
reflect the pattern of new home construction and resales of
existing homes.  These sales typically peak during the spring and
summer seasons and decline to lower levels in the late fall and
winter seasons.

COMPETITION

     The market for mortgage based financing is highly
competitive.  The Company competes with numerous entities,
primarily savings institutions, commercial banks, insurance
companies and other mortgage bankers, many of which have more
experience in mortgage based loans and have substantially
greater financial and other resources than the Company.
Competitive factors include the ability to offer competitive
interest rates, various types of loan programs and services
provided.  With respect to its real estate activities, generally,
and the development and sale of Murray Hill property,
specifically, the Company competes with other real estate
developments and sellers of individual homes.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS

     The Company's mortgage origination activities are subject to
a variety of Federal regulations, including but not limited to,
the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Federal Truth-In-Lending Act
and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act and the regulations
promulgated thereunder which prohibit discrimination and require
the disclosure of certain basic information to applicants
concerning credit terms and settlement costs.  Additionally,
pursuant to the regulations adopted by the State of New Jersey
and Connecticut, the states have the right to conduct financial
and regulatory audits of loans under its jurisdiction and to
determine compliance with state disclosure requirements and usury
laws.  If the Company decides to expand its operations into other
states, it is anticipated that it will have to obtain the
necessary permits and/or licenses before it can commence
operations in such states.  There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to obtain such permits and/or licenses in
any additional state which the Company may plan to operate.

       With respect to its real estate development activities,
the Company is responsible for Development's compliance with
Federal, State and local regulations concerning protection of
the environment, including but not limited to, the New Jersey
Fresh Water and Wetlands Act, soil erosion, sedimentation and
storm water management controls, various stream encroachment
regulations and local health department and zoning regulations.
The Company believes it has complied with all necessary material
regulations pertaining to its material real estate development
activities.

     Amendments to existing regulations and statutes, changes in
regulatory policies, adoption of new statutes and regulations
applicable to the Company and the Company's need to comply with
additional regulations should the Company expand into other
jurisdictions could materially adversely affect the Company's
business in the future.

EMPLOYEES

     As of March 24, 2000, the Company had 13 employees,
of whom 3 were executives, 4 were employed in the processing of
mortgage loans and other clerical positions and 6 were loan
officers.  None of the Company's employees are covered by
collective bargaining agreements and the Company believes that
its relations with its employees are satisfactory.

ITEM 2.  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES

     The Company's executive offices occupy approximately 700
square feet of a total area of approximately 2,800 square feet of
office space it shares with Capital and Development that is
located in Bernardsville, New Jersey.  The 2,800 sq. ft. office
is leased from an unaffiliated third party pursuant to a lease
which expires in March 2002.  The lease provides for a monthly
rental of $5,017, $5,250 and $5,484 through March 2000, 2001 and
2002 respectively.

     As described in ITEM 1, "Business - American Asset
Development Corporation", as of March 24, 2000, the Company
owns 3 unimproved building lots within a subdivision consisting
of approximately 12 acres of land in Franklin Township,
Hunterdon County, New Jersey.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In March 1993, an action was commenced against the Company,
its  President, Richard G. Gagliardi, and the brokerage firms of
G. K. Scott &  Co., Inc. and L. C. Wegard & Co., Inc. in the
Supreme Court of the State of New York, Queens County, by two
individuals who invested a total of $250,000 in the Company's
1989 private offering of Common Stock (the "1989 Offering").  The
plaintiffs alleged that, in connection with their investments in
the 1989 Offering, certain of the defendants misrepresented or
failed to disclose certain material facts concerning the Company
and the 1989 Offering.  The plaintiffs are seeking damages
against the parties, including compensatory damages of $1,000,000
and punitive damages of $5,000,000.  The Company and its
President subsequently moved to dismiss the complaint, and, by
Order dated January 10, 1994, the Court dismissed with prejudice
the motion filed by the Company and Mr. Gagliardi and dismissed
with prejudice the claims of unjust enrichment and conversion
contained in the complaint and dismissed the plaintiffs' breach
of contract claims with leave to amend.  On February 25, 1994,
plaintiffs filed an amended complaint containing allegations
similar to the original breach of contract allegations, which the
Company again moved to dismiss.  In August 1994, the Court
reaffirmed its dismissal of the unjust enrichment and conversion
claims but allowed the breach of contract and fraud claims to
proceed.  The Company believes that the claims are totally
without merit and intends to continue to vigorously defend the
action.

     On March 25, 1999, a derivative action on behalf of two New
Jersey limited liability companies (the "LLC's") was commenced
against certain defendants, including the Company, its President,
the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the
"Company Defendants"); and one of the Company's former directors,
Theodore P. Rica, Jr. ("Rica") in the chancery Division of the
Superior Court of New Jersey, Union County.  The plaintiffs
allege that Rica and certain defendants other than the Company
Defendants ("non-Company defendants"), misappropriated assets and
opportunities of the LLC's for their own use, engaged in
self-dealing with respect to the LLC's, breached the operating
agreements of the LLC's, and converted and embezzled assets and
funds of the LLC's.

     The Company Defendants are alleged to have aided and abetted
Rica in converting the assets of the LLC's by accepting loans and
payments from the LLC's and Rica and repaying the loans to Rica
in the form of cash and Company stock.

     The plaintiffs seek declaratory and injunctive relief
against the Company Defendants; an accounting of (i) all shares
of Company stock purchased by Rica and certain non-Company
defendants and (ii) all payments to or from the Company and Rica
and certain non-Company defendants; imposition of a lien or
equitable trust in favor of the LLC's on shares of Company stock
issued in the names of Rica and certain non-Company defendants;
and certain unspecified compensatory and punitive damages,
attorneys' fees and costs.

     In April 1999, the Court granted a preliminary injunction,
which, among other things, enjoins the Company Defendants from
allowing the transfer of any Company stock held in the name of
Rica and certain other non-Company defendants and directs the
Company Defendants to provide an accounting of all such stock.
The Company, while denying any wrongdoing, did not oppose
plaintiffs' application, as it did not adversely impact the
Company.

     Counter defendants, including the AAMC defendants, have
filed cross claims against other defendants and each other for
contribution and indemnification.  The Company denies any
wrongdoing and believes that the claims against the Company
Defendants are without merit, and intends to defend the action
vigorously.

     On May 18, 1999, Rica submitted to the Company his
resignation from the Company's Board of Directors.


ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTER TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

     The Company did not submit any matters to a vote of its
security holders during the fourth quarter of the year ended
December 31, 1999.

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

     In January 2000, the Company extended the expiration date
of the Company's Class B and Class C Common Stock Purchase
Warrants from January 29, 2000 until January 29, 2001.

rights of any holders of stock, such as Preferred Stock, having
preference of payment of dividends over holders of Common Stock.
The Company's Board does not intend to declare any dividends on
the Common Stock in the foreseeable future, but instead intends
to retain all earnings, if any, for use in the Company's business
operations.


ITEM 6.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 1998

     Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 1999 were
$1,072,189 compared to $2,342,983 for the year ended December 31,
1998, a decrease of $1,270,794 or 54.3%.  The decrease is
primarily attributable to a decrease in revenues generated from
mortgage origination fees made by Capital of $795,642 from
$1,552,496 to $756,854, a decrease in application and commitment
fee income of $142,835 from $254,515 to $111,680, an absence of
land sales during 1999 compared to $355,000 during 1998, which
was partially offset by an increase in mortgage interest income
of $22,683 from $180,972 to $203,655.  The decrease in mortgage
related revenues was the result of a decreased amount of mortgage
closings during the year as a result of higher interest rates and
the loss of sales and executive personnel.  The decrease in
mortgage originations are a direct result of increased interest
rates throughout the year, a reduction in sales personnel and a
decrease in mortgage refinances.  The increase in mortgage
interest income was a direct result of the Company's adding
second mortgages to its product line which carry higher rates of
interest to the Company and interest received from a residential
construction loan which was financed with the Company's own funds
rather than with borrowed funds from its warehouse credit line.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, Capital closed 234
residential mortgage loans in the principal amount of
approximately $48,602,120 compared to 460 loans in the principal
amount of approximately $97,265,964 in the prior year, a decrease
in number of 226 or approximately 49.1%, and a decrease in amount
of $48,663,844 or approximately 50%.  At December 31, 1999, the
Company had approximately 13 mortgage loan applications in
process in the amount of approximately $2,999,581 compared to
approximately 77 mortgage loan applications in process in the
approximate amount of $17,355,469 at December 31, 1998, a
decrease in number of 64 or approximately 83.2% and a decrease in
dollar amount of approximately $14,355,888 or 82.8%.

     Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31,
1999 were $1,337,167, a decrease of $939,716 or 41.2% from the
$2,276,883 incurred in the prior year.  The decrease in operating
expenses was the result of a $442,419 decrease, or approximately
99.9%, in land development costs from $442,937 in the prior year
to $518 in the current period, a decrease in interest expense of
$83,015, or approximately 44.1%, to $65,625 from $148,640 in
the prior year, a decrease of $100,461 or approximately 19.1%, in
employee compensation and benefits to $425,669 from $526,130 in
the prior year, a decrease in commissions of $345,945 or
approximately 46.5% to $301,709 compared to $647,654 in the prior
year, which was partially offset by increases in other expenses
of $32,124 or 106.3% , to $543,646 from $511,522 in the prior
year.  The decreased expenses were primarily attributable to
decreased business resulting from the decline in home sales and
mortgage refinancings due to increased interest rates.  Expressed
as a percentage of revenues, operating expenses decreased to
approximately 41.3% in 1999 from 97.2% in 1998, reflecting
expenses decreasing at a lessor rate than the 54.3% decrease in
revenues.

     Due to the foregoing, the Company incurred a loss from
operations of $264,978, or a $0.20 loss per share basic and
diluted, for the year ended December 31, 1999.  There were no
Preferred Stock dividends paid during 1999.  Net income for 1998
was $66,100, prior to Preferred Stock dividends of $17,967
resulting in net income available to common shareholders of
$48,133 or $0.04 earnings per share basic and diluted in the
prior year.

     The Company had a deferred tax asset of $1,018,056 at
December 31, 1999, arising from net operating loss ("NOL") carry
forwards of approximately $2,285,119.  The NOL carryforwards
expire between 2001 and 2012.  A valuation allowance has been
recorded in the amount of $1,018,056 at December 31, 1999, due to
the uncertainty of future utilization of the Company's NOL carry
forwards.

     No provision for income taxes was made in 1999 due to the
net operating loss and in 1998 due to the utilization of net
operating loss carryforwards.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
     Throughout 1999 the Company continued to take actions that
it believes are necessary to improve future operating results.
Such actions included, but were not limited to, recruiting new
originators of mortgage loans to its sales staff and seeking
additional outside sources of mortgage loans.  During the fourth
quarter of 1999, the Company received two $5,000,000 warehouse
loan commitments from two institutions.  One of the new warehouse
credit lines allows the Company to engage in residential
construction lending, which in the past has been beneficial to
the Company both financially as well as a modality to establish
wholesale relationships with additional sources of mortgage
loans.

     The Company's capital resources during the year ended
December 31, 1999, have primarily been derived from revenues
generated by its mortgage banking operations.  The Company's cash
position decreased in 1999 primarily as a result of losses from
operations.   On December 31, 1999 the Company had working
capital of $461,155 compared to working capital of $919,865 on
December 31, 1998.

    As of December 31, 1999, the Company had cash and cash
equivalents of $340,906 compared to $608,085 at December 31,
1998, a decrease of $267,179 or approximately 44%.  The decrease
was primarily attributable to net cash used in operating
activities of $242,039 and net cash used in financing activities
of $31,364, which was partially offset by net cash provided by
investing activities of $6,224.

    Net cash used in operating activities was the result of a
net loss of $254,978 and increases in mortgage loans receivable
of $242,273, land and development costs of $187,748, and
decreases in warehouse finance facilities of $1,129,212 and
deferred income of $51,760.  These amounts were partially offset
by a decrease in mortgage loans held for sale.

    Net cash used in financing activities was a direct result of
payment of loans payable of $31,364.  These were partially offset
by net cash of $6,224 provided by investing activities due to the
net difference of $21,706 in purchases of fixed assets and
proceeds from notes receivable of $27,930.

     At December 31, 1999 the Company had completed approximately
90% of the construction of a single family home on one of the
four unimproved building lots owned by the Company contained in
it's Hunterdon County subdivision, which was listed for sale
through a realtor during November of 1999.  As of December 31,
1999, the Company has approximately $175,000 invested in the
home, excluding land and development costs.

     The Company estimates that it will require additional
capital in order to successfully implement its existing
operational plans. As a result, the Company is seeking additional
capital through, among other means, an infusion of
noncollateralized loans and the sale of additional equity in the
Company.  However, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to obtain additional capital on terms acceptable to
the Company.

     In the event the Company's plans change, its assumptions
change or prove to be inaccurate due to unanticipated expenses,
delays, problems or otherwise, the Company could be required to
seek additional financing beyond the amounts management currently
estimates is needed to meet its capital requirements.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     This information appears in a separate section of this
report following Part III.


ITEM 8.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES

     On January 11, 2000 the Company dismissed its principal
independent auditor, Grant Thornton, LLP.  The report of Grant
Thornton on the financial statements of the Company for the year
ended December 31, 1998 did not contain an adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion, nor was modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope or accounting principles.  The decision to change
accountants was approved by the Company's Board of Directors.
During the year ended December 31, 1998 and during the period
from January 1, 1999 through January 11, 2000, there were no
disagreements with Grant Thornton, LLP, on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved
to Grant Thornton, LLP's satisfaction, would have caused it to
make reference in connection with its reports to the subject
matter of the disagreement.

     On January 11, 2000 the Company engaged Withum Smith &
Brown, as its principal independent accountant who will report on
the financial statements of the Company for the year ended
December 31, 1999.

       AMERICAN ASSET MANAGEMENT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies:

ORGANIZATION
American Asset Management Corporation (the "Company") through its
two wholly owned subsidiaries, Capital Financial Corp. ("CFC")
and American Asset Development Corporation ("AADC"), is engaged
in originating and selling loans secured primarily by first
mortgages on one-to-four family residential properties (CFC) and
real estate financing and development (AADC).  The Company's
mortgage banking subsidiary is a licensed mortgage banker in the
states of New Jersey and Connecticut.  The real estate project
involves a parcel of land being developed for sale in Hunterdon
County, New Jersey.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All material
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

GEOGRAPHIC AND CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION AND SIGNIFICANT RISKS
The Company's mortgage banking activities are primarily
concentrated in the New Jersey market.

During 1999, the Company's origination revenues were derived from
loan sales to various investors and interest revenues from the
use of Company funds to fund loans.  Two of the investors
comprised revenue percentages of 24% and 11%.  The remaining
investors purchased less than 10% each of the loans.

During 1998, the Company's origination revenues were derived from
loan sales to various investors.  Three investors comprised
revenue percentages of 39.7%, 17.8% and 15.6%.  The remaining
investors purchased less than 10% each of the loans.

The Company receives all of its funds for mortgage banking
activities from three mortgage warehouse lenders (see Note 6).

USE OF ESTIMATES
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and
assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
                               F-8

       AMERICAN ASSET MANAGEMENT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies (Continued):

RETIREMENT PLAN
The Company has a voluntary simple IRA plan for its employees.
Employer contributions to this plan included as a charge to
operations were $9,554 and $9,415 for the years ended December
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
Fixed assets are stated at cost.  Depreciation and amortization
are computed by using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of three years for computer equipment and leasehold
improvements and five years for furniture and fixtures and office
equipment, for both financial reporting and income tax purposes.

MORTGAGE LOANS HELD FOR SALE
Mortgage loans held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or
market value which approximates fair value (see Note 2).
Management establishes a reserve allowance when needed, for
potential losses on a loan-by-loan basis.  No reserve was
required for the mortgages held for sale at December 31, 1999 and
1998.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

GAIN ON SALE
The gain or loss on sales of mortgage loans held for sale to
investors is recognized upon purchase of the loan by the
investor.  The Company records gain on sale of mortgages in
accordance with SFAS No. 125, which provides accounting and
reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial
assets and extinguishments of liabilities.  This statement also
provides standards for distinguishing transfers of financial
assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings.
The Company does not engage in servicing mortgages held for sale.

ORIGINATION FEES
The Company accounts for origination fee income on mortgages held
for sale or mortgage loans receivable in conformity with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 91.  This
statement requires that origination fees be offset by their
direct loan costs and the net deferred income is recognized at
the time the loan is sold.

APPLICATION FEES
The Company's application fees for processing mortgage
applications and commitment fees for committing to fund a loan
are recorded in the statement of operations at the time the loan
is sold or when the specific processing service (i.e. appraisal)
has been provided and the fee is non-refundable.

AMERICAN ASSET MANAGEMENT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies (Continued):

INCOME TAXES
The Company files its Federal income tax return on a consolidated
basis and its state income tax returns on an entity basis.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for
temporary differences between financial statement and tax bases
of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable and
deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates to
periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable
income.  Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to
reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be
realized.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments
purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Company maintains cash balances, at times, with financial
institutions in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation.  Management monitors the soundness of
these institutions and considers the Company's risk negligible.

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Earnings per common share are based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding.  In March 1998, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 128
("SFAS No. 128"), "Earnings Per Share", which requires dual
presentation of the basic and diluted earnings per share on the
face of the statements of operations.  Basic earnings per share
excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to
common stockholders less Preferred Stock dividends by the
weighted number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted earnings
per share for 1998 reflects the dilution that would occur if the
67,000 employee stock options were to be exercised or otherwise
resulted in the issuance of Common Stock that then shared in the
earnings of the Company.  Basic and diluted loss per share for
1999 are the same because the effect of outstanding stock options
would be anti-dilutive.

RESERVE FOR BAD DEBTS
A reserve for bad debts has been provided for on all commission
advances and notes receivable turned over for collection.  The
reserve was $67,195 and $13,531 at December 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants issued Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1, "Accounting
for the Costs of Computer Software Developed for or Obtained for
Internal Use."  The SOP is effective for the Company beginning in
fiscal 2000.  After the date of adoption, the SOP will require
the capitalization of certain costs to develop or obtain software
for internal use that the Company currently expenses as incurred
and will require expensing certain costs that the Company now
capitalizes.  The Company does not anticipate that the adoption
of this SOP will have a material impact on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (SFAS 133).
This statement establishes accounting and reporting guidelines
for derivatives and requires an establishment to record all
derivatives as assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair
value. Additionally, this statement establishes accounting
treatment for three types of hedges:  hedges of changes in the
fair value of assets, liabilities or firm commitments; hedges of
the variable cash flows of forecasted transactions; and hedges of
foreign currency exposures of net investments in foreign
operations.  Any derivative that qualifies as a hedge, depending
upon the nature of that hedge, will either be offset through
earnings against the change in fair value of the hedged assets,
liabilities or firm commitments or recognized in other
comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in
earnings. SFAS 133 has been amended by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of Effective Date
of FASB Statement No. 133 - An Amendment of FASB Statement No.
133," which has delayed the effective date to all fiscal quarters
of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company is
analyzing the implementation requirements and does not anticipate
that the adoption of these statements will have a material impact
on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial
instruments as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 is made by the
Company using available market information and appropriate
valuation methodologies.  However, considerable judgment is
necessarily required to interpret market data to develop the
estimated fair value.  Accordingly, the estimates presented
herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company
could realize in a current market exchange.  The use of different
market assumptions and/or methodologies may have a material
effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The fair value estimates as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 are
based on pertinent information available to management as of
December 31, 1999 and 1998.  Although management is not aware of
any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair
value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively
revalued for purposes of these financial statements since those
dates and, therefore, current estimate of fair value may differ
significantly from the amounts presented herein.  The following
describes the methods and assumptions used by the Company in
estimating fair values:

Mortgage loans held for sale and mortgage loan receivable - Fair
value is estimated using the quoted market prices from investors
and commitments to purchase loans on a non-servicing basis.

Warehouse finance facility - Rates currently available to the
Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are
used to estimate the fair value of existing debt.

consist of the following at December 31:
                                         1999            1998

to be delivered to investors, resulting in a warehouse loan
payable of $234,024.

On March 3, 1995, the Company had entered into another warehouse
line of credit of $5,000,000 with a financial institution.  This
line has been renewed and has an expiration date of May 10, 2000.

Note 7 - Income Taxes:
The provision for income taxes consists of the following for the
years ended December 31:

OPERATING LEASES (Continued)
Rental costs under operating leases included in other operating
expenses amounted to $48,899 and $63,816 for the years ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

PENDING LITIGATION
In March 1993, an action seeking compensatory damages of $1
million and punitive damages of $5 million was commenced against
the Company, the Company's President, and other companies. In the
complaint, the plaintiffs, two individuals who collectively
invested a total of $250,000 in the Company's 1989 private
offering of common stock, claim fraud, unjust enrichment,
conversion, breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract.  The
Company's President and the Company moved to dismiss the
complaint and by Order dated January 10, 1994 the court dismissed
with prejudice the claims of unjust enrichment and conversion and
dismissed the breach of contract claims with leave to amend.  On
February 25, 1994, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint
containing allegations similar to those in the original breach of
contract allegations, which the Company again moved to dismiss.
In August 1994 the Court reaffirmed its dismissal of the unjust
enrichment and conversion claims, but allowed the breach of
contract and fraud claims to proceed.

Although the Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to
this action, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of this
litigation at this time.  However, it does not expect that the
ultimate resolution to this matter will have a material effect on
its results of operations and financial condition.

On March 25, 1999, the Company, its President, and the Company's
wholly owned subsidiary (CFC) (the "Company Defendants") and one
of the Company's former directors together with other individuals
were named in an action filed in the Superior Court of New
Jersey, Chancery Division by two New Jersey limited liability
companies (the "LLCs").  The plaintiffs allege the Company's
former director and other defendants other than the Company
Defendants ("Other Defendants") misappropriated assets and
opportunities of the LLCs for their own use, engaged in
self-dealing with respect to the LLCs, breached the operating
agreements of the LLCs and converted and embezzled assets and
funds of the LLCs.  The Company Defendants are alleged to have
aided and abetted the Company's former director in converting the
assets of the LLCs by accepting loans and payments from the LLCs
and the Company's former director and repaying loans to the
Company's former director in the form of cash and Company stock.

The LLCs seek declaratory and injunctive relief against the
Company Defendants; an accounting of (1) all shares of Company
stock purchased by the Company's former director and Other
Defendants and (2) all payments to or from the Company and the
Company's former director and Other Defendants; imposition of a
lien or equitable trust in favor of the LLCs on shares of the
Company's stock issued to the Company's former director and Other
Defendants; and certain unspecified compensatory and punitive
damages, attorney's fees and costs.

Note 10 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities (Continued):

PENDING LITIGATION (Continued)

In April 1999, the Court granted a preliminary injunction, which
among other things, enjoins the Company's Defendants from
allowing the transfer of any Company stock held in the name of
the Company's former director and Other Defendants and directs
the Company Defendants to provide an accounting of all such
stock.  The Company, while denying any wrongdoing, did not oppose
plaintiffs' application, as it did not adversely impact the
Company.  The Company denies any wrongdoing and believes that the
claims are without merit and intends to defend the action
vigorously.  The Company is unable to predict the outcome of this
litigation at this time.  However, it does not expect that the
ultimate resolution to this matter will have a material effect on
its results of operations and financial condition.

With respect to all litigation, as additional information
concerning the estimates used by the Company become known, the
Company reassesses its position both with respect to accrued
liabilities and other potential exposures.  Estimates that are
particularly sensitive to future change relate to legal matters,
which are subject to change as events evolve and as additional
information becomes available during the administration and
litigation process.

Note 11 - Stock Based Compensation:

STOCK OPTIONS
The Company adopted a 1992 Stock Option Plan, effective November
