About the Host

Philip Mock began the Retirement Detective podcast in 2023 as a way to provide financial education to a broad audience of pre-retirees and retirees.  He is the founder of 1522 Financial, a boutique financial planning and wealth management firm in Tulsa, OK.  He holds the Chartered Financial Analyst designation and is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional.

​

Philip recorded music before recording podcasts and plays guitar in his spare time. When he's not slinging his stratocaster, he's spending time with his wife Cassie, their two children and their two crazy dogs.  From time to time, you'll find Philip on the golf course.  His first swing was around 3 years old and he was hooked (much like his drives).

​

Philip is a proud graduate of Oklahoma State University.  He does his best to catch a few football games and basketball games each season, but has learned that the best seat is in his living room.
