                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   Basis of Presentation

     The  financial  statements  included  herein have been prepared by Rushmore
Financial Group, Inc. ("Company" or "RFGI") without audit, pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange  Commission.  Certain information
and footnote  disclosures  normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America have been condensed or omitted  pursuant to such rules and  regulations,
although the Company believes that the disclosures contained herein are adequate
to make the information presented not misleading.  In the opinion of management,
the information  furnished in the unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements
reflects all  adjustments  which are ordinary in nature and necessary to present
fairly the Company's  financial  position,  results of operations and changes in
financial position for such interim period.  These interim financial  statements
should be read in conjunction  with the Company's  financial  statements and the
notes thereto as of December 31, 2001,  included in the Company's  annual report
on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2001.

     The accompanying  financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will  continue as a going  concern.  At June 30,  2002,  the Company had
$2,141,963 in liabilities,  no cash and accounts  receivable of $170,737.  Also,
the Company had net losses from  continuing  operations  of  $1,057,635 in 2000,
$2,203,896 in 2001, and $1,998,468 in the first six months of 2002. Although the
Company  believes that it will be able to continue to raise the necessary  funds
until it reaches a  sustainable  level of  profitability,  these  matters  raise
substantial  doubt about the Company's  ability to continue as a going  concern.
The financial  statements do not include any adjustments  that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.

     The  Company  has  taken  several  steps  to  increase  cash  by the use of
borrowings and equity. In the second quarter of 2002 the Company raised $100,000
through  the  sale of  convertible  debentures  and  $35,000  from  the  sale of
preferred stock. The Company will attempt to raise additional  capital through a
Senior Secured  Convertible Bond Offering whereby the bonds will be secured by a
lien on RushTrade's proprietary software and other technology assets.

     The Company has also  undergone an extensive  internal  reorganization  and
reduction  of  staff  to  adjust  to the  current  level  of  activity  and  has
implemented  additional  steps  to more  closely  monitor  expenses.  Additional
marketing efforts are being implemented to enhance revenue and take advantage of
the upcoming release of the RushTrade software products.  The RushTrade products
were released on July 1, 2002, and have so far generated only minimal revenue.

     Rushmore  Insurance  Services,   Incorporated  ("Rushmore  Agency")  is  an
insurance agency and an affiliate of the Company by means of service agreements.
The Company has entered into an  administrative  services  agreement whereby net
revenues and expenses are charged via a management fee to the Company.  Rushmore
Agency has been consolidated in the Retail Brokerage segment of the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.


2.       Industry Segment Information

     The  Company's  assets,  revenue,  and expenses are  attributable  to three
identifiable  business  segments:   Direct  Access  Brokerage  Services,  Retail
Brokerage Services, and Corporate.

     The   Direct   Access   Brokerage   Services    division,    operating   as
"RushTrade(TM)",  has been  developed  to meet the needs of the  active  on-line

investor,  RushTrade Direct,  its Level I browser-based  product,  and RushTrade

streams in the form of licensing  fees and  royalties  from  expected  licensing
arrangements.

                                                                               6

3.       Capitalized Software Development Costs

     The Company  capitalizes  certain costs  associated with the development of
the  RushTrade  software  products.  During  the first six  months of 2002,  the
Company  capitalized  $337,160 in costs  versus  $626,174 for the same period in
2001. As of June 30, 2002, the total of all  capitalized  costs was  $2,076,417.
Upon release of each of the RushTrade products or modules, costs related to that
product  or module  will be  charged  to  operating  expenses  instead  of being
capitalized.  Additionally,  all  presently  capitalized  costs  relating  to  a
released  product or module  will be  amortized  by the  greater of the  revenue
method or the  straight-line  method over a three-year  period. On July 1, 2002,
the Company  released its RushTrade Direct and RushTrade Direct Pro products and
began amortizing the capitalized development cost associated with these products
over a three-year period.

4.   Recent Transactions

     In March 2002, the Company entered into an Agreement, as an amendment to an
earlier  revenue-sharing  agreement,  with NewportX.com,  an affiliate of Online
Trading  Academy of Irvine,  CA.  ("OTA") to acquire a block of up to 150 active
trader  accounts which are to be referred or directed to RushTrade over the next
six months in exchange for 1,200,000  shares of RFGI common stock.  These shares
were issued  during March 2002 and the Company has  recorded a prepaid  asset of
$300,000,  the fair  value of the stock on the date of  issuance.  As the active
trader  accounts are As of June 30, 2002, no trader accounts have been certified
received  and  certified,  the  Company  will  reclassify  these  amounts  to an
intangible asset. OTA is an education  provider and conducts  classroom training
for those  interested  in day  trading or other  active  investors  who seek the
latest  investment  tools and techniques in the active trader market.  RushTrade
has entered into a strategic  relationship  with OTA as an industry  partner for
training  and  education   whereby  OTA  will  conduct  training  classes  using
RushTrade's Direct Pro software trading platform.

5.       Subsequent Events

     The Company and Empire Financial Holding Company, Inc.(Empire) entered into
and  agreement  in June 2002  where  Empire  would  purchase  certain  assets of
Rushmore Securities Corporation,  a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. This
transaction  was  completed  on August 9, 2002 with the transfer of $79,464 from
Empire to the Company.  The total  consideration for the sale of these assets is
25% of the gross revenues generated by these assets for a 12-month period.  This
consideration, which is subject to adjustment, has been estimated to be $211,905
based on actual prior  revenues.  The Company  expects to receive and additional
$26,488 in cash  within 90 days and the  remainder,  $105,952  in either cash or
restricted  stock of Empire within 180 days of the close.  The purchase price of
$211,904.00  represents a substantial  loss of the value of the asset being sold
which is carried on the  Company's  books as goodwill.  As a result,  during the
second quarter of 2002, the Company wrote off $1,042,028 of goodwill to state it
at its estimated net realizable value of $211,905 at June 30, 2002.


6.       Discontinued Operations

     In September 2001 the Company entered into an agreement,  with an effective
date of August 1, 2001, to sell Rushmore  Investment  Advisors,  Inc. ("Rushmore
Advisors") to Mr. John Vann in exchange for the redemption and  cancellation  of
597,405 shares of the Company's  common stock plus a note for $200,000.  As part
of the sale,  Mr. Vann also  retained the right to prepay his  existing  note of
$280,319 to the Company at a discount.  Both notes were subsequently  discounted
to a total of  $250,000  and  paid.  The sale,  including  the  discounted  note
payoffs,  resulted in a one-time non-operating loss of approximately  $2,900,000
in  September  2001.  The  financial  data  relating  to  Rushmore  Advisors  is
classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

9.       Goodwill

     In July 2001 the FASB issued  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards
No. 142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and Intangible Assets, which revises the accounting
for  purchased  goodwill and  intangible  assets.  Under SFAS 142,  goodwill and
intangible assets with indefinite lives will no longer be amortized, but will be
tested  for  impairment  annually,  and  also  in  the  event  of an  impairment
indicator.  SFAS 142 is effective for fiscal years  beginning after December 15,
2001. The elimination of the  amortization of goodwill upon adoption of SFAS 142
is expected to reduce annual operating  expenses by approximately  $89,000.  The
Company adopted SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002.

     As  discussed  in Note 5,  during the second  quarter of 2002,  the Company
entered into an agreement to sell certain  assets,  which relate to the goodwill
recorded on the Company's books. As a result the Company wrote off $1,042,028 of
goodwill to state it at its  estimated  net  realizable  value of  $211,905  the
purchase price of the assets being sold.

10.      Deferred Financing Fees

     During the second quarter of 2002, the Company recorded deferred  financing
fees of  $41,569  that  represent  the  fair  value  of  warrants  issued  to an
individual that assisted the Company in obtaining  certain debt  financing.  The
deferred financing fees are amortized on a straight-line  basis over the term of
the related notes, which is three years.

11.      Convertible Notes Payable

     During the  current  quarter,  the  Company  issued two  convertible  notes
totaling  $100,000.  These notes bear  interest at 9% per annum,  principal  and
accrued interest payable in quarterly  installments  beginning October 15, 2002,
mature  April 1, 2005 and are  convertible  into  shares of common  stock at the
lesser of $0.25 per share or the average  closing  price of the common  stock on
its  principal  trading  market for the 30 trading days  preceding the notice of
conversion, but in no event less than $0.17 per share.

12.      Stock Options and Warrants

     During the current  quarter,  the Company granted  1,031,000 stock options.
100,001 options were granted to employees for common stock  exercisable at $0.16
per share that expire in five years as  compensation.  930,000 options valued at
$167,491 were granted to non-employees  for services.  The options have exercise
prices ranging from $0.22-$0.26 per share that expire in five years.

     Additionally,  during the  current  quarter,  the  Company  issued  200,000
warrants to  purchase  common  stock  valued at $41,569 to a  non-employee  as a
finders  fee in  connection  with  the  Company  obtaining  debt  financing.  As
discussed in Note 10 these  warrants  have an exercise  price of $0.25 per share
and expire in five years.


13.      Insurance Claims Payable

     During  the  second  quarter  of 2002,  the  Company  was  notified  by the
administrator  of their  partially  self-insurance  program that the Company had
outstanding  claims  due  to  health  care  providers  totaling  $168,093.   The
administrator   has  been  unable  to  provide  the  Company  with   information
documenting  the period  these  claims  relate to. The Company  had  recorded an
accrual of  approximately  $60,000 related to these claims in previous  periods.
The  additional  liability  related to these  claims was  recorded in the second
quarter of 2002. As of June 30, 2002,  the Company has accrued this liability in
full along with an  estimated  accrual of $20,000 for future  funds that will be
required to cover  current  claims.  In total,  insurance  claims  payable total
$188,093 at June 30, 2002. The self-insured  plan was terminated on may 31, 2002
and the Company enrolled in a fully-insured plan on June 1, 2002.


                                                                               9

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

1.   Recent Development

     In March 2002 the Company's technology  development  subsidiary,  RushTrade
Software Services,  Inc. entered into a non-exclusive agreement with CentraTrade
Services,  Ltd.  of Houston  whereby  CentraTrade  would  become a licensee  and
distributor of RushTrade's  RushTrade  Direct and RushTrade  Direct Pro software
platforms to other NASD member  broker/dealers.  The Company expects to begin to
derive various  revenue streams in the form of licensing fees and royalties from
these expected licensing arrangements.

2.   RushTrade(TM)Direct Access Online Services Software Development

     RushTrade      Direct      Access      Online       Services--RushTrade.com
(http://www.rushtrade.com),   a  division  of  Rushmore  Securities,   has  been
developed to meet the needs of the active on-line investor. RushTrade offers its
clients  real-time  Level I and Level II investment  price quotes  combined with
direct  access to  Electronic  Communications  Networks  ("ECN"s)  and the major
Exchanges.  The RushTrade product was developed by RushTrade  Software Services,
Inc.,  and will be  distributed  through  RushTrade.com,  a division of Rushmore
Securities.  The RushTrade  product was released on July 1, 2002 and is expected
to provide various  additional revenue streams in the form of licensing fees and
royalties from expected licensing arrangements.

     RushTrade  offers  two  distinct  products  to meet the needs of the active
online  investor,  RushTrade  Direct,  our Level I  browser-based  product,  and
RushTrade Direct Pro, our Level II software-based product.

     RushTrade  Direct  attempts  to meet the needs of the  online  investor  by
delivering  real-time quotes and information,  RushTrade's Direct Access Routing
Technology  (DART(TM)),  and customer service provided by experienced registered
representatives.  This product is delivered to investors via the  Internet,  and
therefore is able to be accessed from virtually any computer with a web browser.

     RushTrade  Direct  Pro,  RushTrade's  proprietary  software-based  Level II
product,  attempts to meet the more sophisticated  on-line investors' demands by
providing the latest trading  technologies and tools available in an easy-to-use
trading system.  Significant features of the Level II product include streaming,
real-time Level II securities quotes,  news, charts,  research,  and RushTrades'
proprietary  Direct  Access  Routing  Technology  (DART(TM)).  DART(TM)  enables
investors  to route their orders  directly to the specific ECN or Exchange  with
the best market  price,  thus saving the  investor  time and money by  providing
improved trade execution  quality.  RushTrade  Direct Pro clients have access to
the same customer service support that all RushTrade Direct users receive.

     The RushTrade  products were released into various stages of testing during
2001-2002.  Beta testing began for RushTrade  Direct in July 2001.  Beta testing
for  RushTrade  Direct Pro began in  November  2001,  and again with  additional
features  in  February  2002.  Both  products  were  released  on July 1,  2002.
RushTrade's  Penson Back Office  Administrative  tool,  a module  necessary  for
licensing the software to other  broker/dealers  who have clearing  arrangements
with Penson  Financial,  is currently under  development,  and is expected to be
ready for beta testing in late 2002.  Final release of the module is expected to
occur no sooner than December 2002.


2.   Results of Continuing Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2002 and 2001

Revenues

The following table sets forth the components of the Company's  revenues for the
periods indicated:

                                           Three Months Ended June 30,

     ---------------------------------------------------  ----------------------
     Direct Access Brokerage                   $266,598                 $72,040
     Retail Brokerage                         1,344,124               2,308,034
     Corporate                                        -                  14,211
                                   ---------------------  ----------------------
                 Total                       $1,610,722              $2,394,285
                                   =====================  ======================


                                                                              10
<PAGE>

     Total revenue for the second quarter decreased $783,563,  or 33%, from 2001
to 2002.  This  decrease was  comprised  primarily of decreases of $963,910 from
Retail Brokerage  operations and $14,211 from corporate  revenues,  offset by an
increase of $194,558 in Direct Access Brokerage revenue.

     Direct Access Brokerage revenue increased  $194,558,  or 270%, from 2001 to
2002.  This  increase  was  primarily  the result of adding a new  trading  firm
customer  licensed in late December  2001.  The agreement with this trading firm
was terminated in July 2002 and thus we expect Direct Access  Brokerage  revenue
to decrease in the third quarter of 2002.

     Retail Brokerage revenue decreased $963,910, or 42%, from 2001 to 2002. The
decrease in  insurance  revenue is  primarily  due to  management's  decision to
reposition its insurance  marketing  resources and efforts to concentrate on the
development  and launch of its RushTrade  direct access on-line  trading system.
Overall  market  conditions  contributed  to the  overall  decline in the Retail
Brokerage revenue.

     Corporate  revenue  decreased  primarily  due to the  decrease  in interest
income from 2001 to 2002, as  interest-earning  assets such as  investments  and
notes receivable decreased.



Expenses

     The following table sets forth the components of the Company's expenses for
the periods indicated:

                                          Three Months Ended June 30,
                                  ---------------------------------------------

       Direct Access Brokerage                 $439,780               $253,034
       Retail Brokerage                       2,393,431              2,281,079
       Corporate                                461,437                406,368
                                  ---------------------- ----------------------
                   Total                     $3,294,648             $2,940,481
                                  ====================== ======================

     Total expenses  increased $354,167 or 12%, from 2001 to 2002. Direct Access
Brokerage  expenses  increased  $186,746,  Retail Brokerage  expenses  increased
$112,352 and Corporate expenses increased $55,069.

     Direct Access Brokerage expenses increased  $186,746,  or 74%, from 2001 to
2002.  This increase is primarily due to commissions of $183,645 paid to the new
trading firm licensed in December 2001. The agreement with this trading firm was
terminated in July 2002 and thus we expect Direct Access  Brokerage  expenses to
decrease in the third quarter of 2002.

     Retail Brokerage  expenses  increased  $112,352,  or 5%, from 2001 to 2002.
This increase is the result of a write off of impaired  goodwill  related to the
Retail  Brokerage  assets of $1,042,028  offset by a decrease in expenses due to
Management's  decision to  reposition  its  insurance  marketing  resources  and
efforts to concentrate  on the  development  and launch of its RushTrade  direct
access on-line trading system.

     Corporate  expenses  increased  $55,069,  or 14%,  from  2001 to 2002.  The
Company  instituted cost reduction  policies after the Northstar  acquisition in
2001 and  continues  to reduce  cost.  In the second  quarter of 2002  Corporate
expenses are increased due to anon-cash charge for consulting fees of $167,491.

<PAGE>

     Operating losses increased  $1,137,730,  or 208%, from 2001 to 2002. Direct
Access  Brokerage  operating losses decreased by $7,812 or 4% from 2001 to 2002.
Retail  Brokerage  recorded  operating  losses of  ($1,050,307)  in 2002  versus
operating  income of $26,955 in 2001.  The change was  primarily a result of the
write off of  goodwill  of  $1,042,028.  Corporate  operating  losses  increased
$69,280 or 18%, from 2001 to 2002. Corporate operating losses increased in spite
of the continued cost cutting. This was primarily due to the non-cash consulting
fees.

offset by an increase of $375,318 in Direct Access Brokerage revenue.

     Direct Access Brokerage revenue increased  $375,318,  or 300%, from 2001 to
2002.  This  increase  was  primarily  the result of adding a new  trading  firm
customer  licensed in late December  2001.  The agreement with this trading firm
was terminated in July 2002 and thus we expect Direct Access  Brokerage  revenue
to decrease in the third quarter of 2002.

     Retail Brokerage revenue decreased $936,698, or 25%, from 2001 to 2002. The
decrease in  insurance  revenue is  primarily  due to  management's  decision to
reposition its insurance  marketing  resources and efforts to concentrate on the
development  and launch of its RushTrade  direct access on-line  trading system.
Overall  market  conditions  contributed  to the  overall  decline in the Retail
Brokerage revenue.

     Corporate  revenue  decreased  primarily  due to the  decrease  in interest
income from 2001 to 2002, as  interest-earning  assets such as  investments  and
notes receivable decreased.



Expenses

     The following table sets forth the components of the Company's expenses for
the periods indicated:

                                           Six Months Ended June 30,
                                  ---------------------------------------------
                   Expenses               2002                   2001
         -----------------------  ---------------------- ----------------------
         Direct Access Brokerage               $835,786               $465,235
         Retail Brokerage                     3,683,924              3,854,598
         Corporate                              735,506                888,903
                                  ---------------------- ----------------------
                     Total                   $5,255,216             $5,208,736
                                  ====================== ======================

     Total expenses  increased  $46,480 or 1%, from 2001 to 2002.  Direct Access
Brokerage  expenses  increased  $370,551,  Retail Brokerage  expenses  decreased
$170,674 and Corporate expenses decreased $153,397.

                                                                              12
<PAGE>

     Direct Access Brokerage expenses increased  $370,551,  or 80%, from 2001 to
2002. This increase is primarily due to commissions paid to the new trading firm
licensed in December  2001.  The agreement with this trading firm was terminated
in July 2002 and thus we expect Direct Access Brokerage  expenses to decrease in
the third quarter of 2002.

     Retail Brokerage  expenses  decreased  $170,674,  or 4%, from 2001 to 2002.
This decrease is the result of a write off of impaired  goodwill  related to the
Retail  Brokerage  assets of $1,042,028  offset by a decrease in expenses due to
Managements decision to reposition its insurance marketing resources and efforts
to  concentrate  on the  development  and launch of its RushTrade  direct access
on-line trading system.

     Corporate  expenses  decreased  $153,397,  or 17%,  from 2001 to 2002.  The
Company  instituted cost reduction  policies after the Northstar  acquisition in
2001 and  continues  to reduce  cost.  In the second  quarter of 2002  Corporate
expenses are increased due to a non-cash charge for consulting fees of $167,491.

Operating income (loss) from continuing operations

     The  following  table sets forth the  components  of the  Company's  income
(loss) for the periods indicated:

            Income (Loss) from              Six Months Ended June 30,
                                   ---------------------------------------------

       Direct Access Brokerage                ($335,794)             ($340,561)
       Retail Brokerage                        (927,176)              (161,152)
       Corporate                               (735,498)              (851,841)
                                   ---------------------- ----------------------
                   Total                    ($1,998,468)           ($1,353,554)
                                   ====================== ======================

Operating losses increased  $644,914,  or 48%, from 2001 to 2002.  Direct Access
Brokerage  operating losses decreased by $4,767 or 1% from 2001 to 2002.  Retail
Brokerage  operating  losses  increased  $766,024  in 2002  versus 2001 or 475%.
Retail  Brokerage  losses were caused  primarily by the write-off of goodwill of
$1,042,028.  Corporate  operating losses decreased $116,343 or 14%, from 2001 to
2002.  Corporate  operating  losses  increased  in spite of the  continued  cost
cutting. This was primarily due to the non-cash consulting fees.

Liquidity

    Cash  Flows  from  Operating  Activities  -  The  Company  had a  loss  from
continuing operations of $1,998,463 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This
amount was adjusted for non-cash expenses totaling  $1,190,493.  Cash flows from
operating activities were increased by a decrease in receivables of $168,009 and
by  various  other  cash flow  adjustments  aggregating  a net source of cash of
$235,865;  thus  yielding  a net  cash  flow  used by  operating  activities  of
$236,605.

    Cash  Flows  From  Investing  Activities  -  Cash  flow  used  by  investing
activities  during  the six  months  ended June 30,  2002 was  $354,203,  due to
capitalizing  $337,160 in  development  costs  related to the  RushTrade  direct
access software and purchasing various fixed assets for $20,900.

    Cash Flows from Financing  Activities - During the six months ended June 30,
2002,  the Company raised  $100,390 from the sale of common and preferred  stock
and  $300,000  from  borrowings.  The Company  paid $33,160 as payments on notes
payable and $38,184 as preferred stock dividends.

     The Company's  cash and cash  equivalents  available for operations at June
30,  2002  were  zero,  and the  Company's  liabilities  exceeded  its  cash and
receivables  by  $1,971,226.   The  Company's   requirements   for  normal  cash
expenditures,  as well as costs for the  further  development  and launch of the
proprietary on-line RushTrade software, have historically been supplemented with
borrowings  and  equity   capital  raised  through  the  private   placement  of
securities;  however,  there can be no assurance that these sources of cash will
be available in the future.

     The accompanying  financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will  continue as a going  concern.  At June 30,  2002,  the Company had
$2,141,963 in liabilities,  and cash and accounts receivable of $170,737.  Also,
the Company had net losses from  continuing  operations  of  $1,057,635 in 2000,
$2,203,896  in 2001,  and  $1,998,468  for the six months  ended June 30,  2002.
Although  the  Company  believes  that it will be able to  continue to raise the
necessary  funds until it reaches a sustainable  level of  profitability,  these
matters raise  substantial  doubt about the  Company's  ability to continue as a
going  concern.  The financial  statements do not include any  adjustments  that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                                                                              13
<PAGE>

     The  Company  has  taken  several  steps  to  increase  cash  by the use of
borrowings and equity. In the second quarter of 2002 the Company raised $100,000
through  the  sale of  convertible  debentures  and  $35,000  from  the  sale of
preferred stock. The Company will attempt to raise additional  capital through a
Senior Secured  Convertible Bond Offering whereby the bonds will be secured by a
lien on RushTrade's proprietary software and other technology assets.

     The Company has also  undergone an extensive  internal  reorganization  and
reduction  of  staff  to  adjust  to the  current  level  of  activity  and  has
implemented  additional  steps  to more  closely  monitor  expenses.  Additional
marketing efforts are being implemented to enhance revenue and take advantage of
the upcoming release of the RushTrade software products.  The RushTrade products
were released on July 1, 2002, and have so far generated only minimal revenue.
