Ryan Rendon and Steven Butcher sit down with Greg Schorp of Texas Retirement Headquarters for a conversation about retirement planning, tax strategy, fiduciary responsibility, family, football, and building financial freedom with the future in mind.

Greg shares his journey from growing up in a military family to playing football at Texas A&M, spending time with the Dallas Cowboys, Jaguars, and Seahawks, and eventually moving into financial services. They talk through what people often misunderstand about retirement, why tax planning matters, how Roth and other tax-free strategies can help, what fiduciary responsibility really means, and how Hill Country families can better prepare for retirement.
