Seasoned financial advisors working with HENRYs (high earners, not rich yet) in Massachusetts
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.
If you're earning a high income but haven't yet built significant wealth, you need an advisor who understands how to balance saving, spending, and tax planning for your unique stage. Without this focus, it's easy to overlook how state taxes like Massachusetts' "millionaire's tax" surtax can impact your take-home pay and savings potential.
- Income timing strategies. Ask how they help manage cash flow and tax withholding to avoid surprises from surtaxes.
- Savings prioritization. Confirm how they recommend balancing retirement accounts, emergency funds, and debt repayment given your income and goals.
- Career growth planning. Look for advisors who consider your expected income trajectory and how it affects your financial decisions.
- Flat-fee structure. These seasoned advisors charge a set fee, which can make costs clearer as your finances grow.
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
