Seasoned, retirement plans for business owners (SEP, solo 401k) financial advisors in Cambridge, MA
The right financial advisor for you depends on how you weigh location, expertise, experience, the clients they typically serve, and how they work with you.
You might be setting up or reviewing a retirement plan like a SEP or solo 401(k) for your business and want to ensure it fits your long-term goals. A common mistake is treating these plans as just tax shelters instead of integral parts of your overall retirement strategy.
- Plan design insight. Look for advisors who explain how plan features affect your cash flow and employee benefits, not just tax deductions.
- Tax impact awareness. Ask how they navigate local tax rules, including the 'Millionaire's tax' surtax on high incomes, to optimize your plan.
- Experience with business owners. Confirm they understand the unique challenges of balancing business growth and retirement savings.
- Long-term coordination. See if they integrate your retirement plan with other financial goals like succession or estate planning.
Here are top matches to get you started. Review each profile to compare experience, credentials, and approach.

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
