Licensed Financial Professional
Bob has been a dedicated professional in the retirement planning industry since 2004. As a managing partner of TEAM Retirement Solutions, he takes immense pride in addressing the ever-evolving needs of his clients. Bob's commitment goes beyond just educating clients—he ensures they have proper life insurance coverage, annuity plans, and, when needed, collaborates with other TEAM associates to address all aspects of their financial needs. With his client's best interests always at heart, Bob works as an independent agent, giving him access to a variety of insurance providers to help clients meet their financial goals and objectives.
Throughout his career, Bob has valued the long-lasting relationships he's built with clients, help guiding them and their families in starting, building, and maintaining secure financial plans. He continues to cherish these connections and remains steadfast in his commitment to their financial confidence. Outside of his professional life, Bob enjoys spending quality time with his wife, Marla, and their daughter, Berrit Kathryn. The Burnes family loves being outdoors—whether it's relaxing on the porch while watching the sunset or traveling to new destinations in search of fresh experiences.
Bob is also passionate about giving back to his community. Over the past 20 years, he has been actively involved in several non-profit organizations in the Victoria area, serving on various boards. His greatest passion, however, is hunting. Bob dedicates time each year to taking his family and introducing both children and adults to the great outdoors through his work with non-profit groups.

Licensed Financial Professional
Frank currently holds his RICP designation and has been an insurance and retirement professional since 2003. As a managing partner of TEAM Retirement Solutions, he shares the goal of building and maintaining long-term relationships with his clients throughout their working careers and into retirement. He believes he can provide value to his clients by helping them avoid losses, create income streams they can’t outlive, and give them peace of mind at retirement so they can focus on what matters to them the most.
Frank graduated in 2000 with a bachelor’s degree in marketing from Oklahoma State University, where he enjoyed four years of baseball as a Cowboy. Following college, Frank spent four years in the Cincinnati Reds organization before building his business as a financial professional.
Frank and his wife, Sandra, live in Spring Branch, Texas, with their two sons, Cole and Jake. Together, they advocate for healthy families and a better future for generations to come. The Bludau family spends its time where it matters most to them — on the baseball field, football field, ranch, and boat; in the backyard with friends and family; and occasionally on a trip to Disney World.
Frank is passionate about empowering other parents to care for their families financially — whether they are present or not — through education, awareness, and decisive action.
