In this week’s episode of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons, CEO and Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, unpacks the complex world of bonds and why they matter to everyday investors. With market headlines swirling and interest rates shifting, Darryl breaks down what bonds really are, how they function in your portfolio, and why government debt isn’t just a political issue - it’s a personal one.

From explaining how bond auctions work to highlighting the risks of chasing returns, this episode offers a practical and reassuring look at what is often considered the “boring” side of investing - and why it deserves your attention. Key Highlights:

• Why bonds still play a vital role - even if you prefer stocks. • What bond auctions reveal about global trust in the U.S. economy. • The four principles every investor should follow when it comes to bonds. • Why professional bond management can make a major difference. • How to stay calm (and informed) in the face of economic uncertainty.
