Historically, our plan of operation has been stalled by a lack of adequate working capital. During 2008, we raised $256,500 net of financing costs of $38,500, through two private placements and as of March 31, 2009 we had available cash of $246,669. We believe these funds will help support existing operational costs, but will only be sufficient to satisfy our working capital requirements through June 30, 2009.

Consequently, in addition to cash generated from operations, we will need to raise additional funds through either equity, including convertible securities such as preferred stock or debentures, or debt financing.
[...]

We believe the $246,669 in un-restricted cash on hand at March 31, 2009 will only be sufficient to sustain operations through the second quarter of fiscal 2009. As a result, we anticipate the need to seek additional funding for operations through equity offerings and may need to further do so in the future through additional financing, acquisitions, joint ventures or other means available to us. There can be no assurance that we will be able to complete a transaction or complete a transaction on terms favorable to our stockholders or us.

As we continue to expand in the financial services industry, we anticipate incurring operating losses over the next twelve months. Our lack of operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development.

Any clues as to who the private placement was with? The poster below seems to think he knows or it should be pubic knowledge.

10-Jun-2009: Form 8-K for RUBICON FINANCIAL INC


Change in Directors or Principal Officers, Regulation FD Disclosure

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(b) Departure of Officer - Effective May 4, 2009, the Registrant's interim COO agreement with Bootstrap Real Estate Investments, LLC expired. Under the agreement with Bootstrap, Mr. Todd Vande Hei, as the Managing Member of Bootstrap, performed the duties and responsibilities of chief operating officer for the Registrant. As a result of the expiration of the agreement, Mr. Vande Hei is no longer serving as the Registrant's interim chief operating officer.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the following disclosure is deemed to be "furnished" and shall not be deemed "filed" for the purpose of
Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, each as amended.

On April 16, 2009 the United States Attorney for the District of Delaware filed indictments against seven individuals, including Joseph Mangiapane, Jr., the Registrant's chief executive officer, principal financial officer, president, secretary and treasurer, alleging various unlawful acts. Mr. Mangiapane, who was a registered representative with AIS Financial, Inc. ("AIS"), a registered broker/dealer, at all times relevant to the allegations (August 2006 to February 2007), was served with his indictment on May 20, 2009. In addition, on May 20, 2009, the SEC filed a civil complaint against the same seven individuals, and one additional individual, alleging violations of the antifraud, registration, and other provisions of the federal securities laws. A copy of the SEC complaint can be found on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

In addition, the Registrant deemed it imperative to clarify certain misstatements in the Delaware action and SEC complaint as relates to the ownership and management of AIS. On April 12, 2006, the Registrant originally agreed to acquire AIS (then known as "Advantage Investment Strategies, Inc."), pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger. On July 17, 2006, the Registrant entered into a Termination Agreement whereby the Agreement and Plan of Merger with Advantage Investment Strategies, Inc. was terminated because the respective Boards of Directors of the Registrant and Advantage Investment Strategies determined that the proposed merger with Advantage Investment Strategies were no longer consistent with, and in furtherance of, their respective business strategies and goals.

Further, almost a year after terminating the merger with Advantage Investment Strategies, on June 15, 2007, the Registrant acquired a 24.9% minority interest in AIS through the issuance of 100,000 shares of its common stock and a cash payment of $100,000 to AIS's sole owner and principal, Marc Riviello, also one of the individuals indicted. On June 3, 2008, the Registrant entered into a Stock Repurchase and Settlement Agreement with AIS and Mr. Riviello whereby the Registrant returned the 24.9% of AIS in exchange for the cancellation of 100,000 shares of its common stock initially issued as partial payment of the purchase and an unsecured promissory note from Mr. Riviello in the amount of $100,000. Therefore, the Registrant did not own or control AIS during the period set forth in the SEC complaint, August 2006 to February 2007, and never participated in the management of AIS.
