Our Clients
Retirement Clarity for People Who've Earned It
You've spent decades building a career, raising a family, and doing the right things with your money, but no one ever handed you a roadmap for what comes next. At Granite Sky, we believe money doesn't come with instructions, so we make it our job to educate you, walk alongside you, and help you retire with confidence on your own terms. When you work with us, you don't just get a plan, you become part of the family.
Individuals & Families
Build Wealth That Grows With Your Family
You're juggling careers, kids, aging parents, and trying to save for a future that feels both urgent and far away. We help you build a financial plan that protects what matters most today while growing with you through every stage, from buying a home to funding college to planning for retirement. Our family-focused approach means we understand the real pressures you're facing, and we build strategies that work for your household, not just your portfolio.
Pre-Retirees
Retire on Your Terms With Complete Confidence
You've been saving for decades, but now the questions feel bigger: Do I actually have enough? When can I walk away? What will my income look like when the paychecks stop? We help you answer those questions with clarity, not guesswork. Through goals-based planning and structured distribution strategies, we show you what retirement looks like on your terms, so you can make the transition with confidence instead of anxiety.
Retirees
Make Your Money Last as Long as You Do
You've made it to retirement, but now you're wondering: Will my money last? Am I withdrawing too much, or too little? Should I be doing something different? We help you manage distributions strategically across the stages of your retirement, coordinate Social Security and healthcare decisions, and adjust your plan as life changes. Our goal is simple: help you enjoy the retirement you've worked decades to earn without constantly worrying about running out.
Working Professionals
Turn Your High Income Into Lasting Wealth
Your income is strong, but between stock options, bonuses, benefits, and competing priorities, it's hard to know if you're making the right moves. We help high-earning professionals like you maximize equity compensation, reduce tax drag, and build a wealth plan that goes beyond just saving more. Whether you're climbing the ladder or considering your exit strategy, we make sure your money is working as hard as you are.
Pension Employees
Maximize Every Dollar of Your Pension
You're juggling careers, kids, aging parents, and trying to save for a future that feels both urgent and far away. We help you build a financial plan that protects what matters most today while growing with you through every stage, from buying a home to funding college to planning for retirement. Our family-focused approach means we understand the real pressures you're facing, and we build strategies that work for your household, not just your portfolio.
Educators & Administrators
Retire With the Security You've Earned
You've dedicated your career to educating others, but your own retirement benefits, pension, 403(b), TDA, Social Security, can feel like a confusing maze. We work with educators and administrators to demystify your unique benefits, coordinate your income sources, and build a plan that honors the years you've given. You've spent decades serving your community; we make sure you retire with the security and peace of mind you deserve.
Let's Talk About What Retirement Looks Like for You
You don't need to have all the answers before we sit down together, that's what the conversation is for. We start by listening, because your goals drive every decision we make. Money doesn't come with instructions, but you don't have to figure it out alone.
Questions We Hear From Clients Like You
- How do I know if I actually have enough to retire?
That's the question we hear most, and it deserves a real answer, not a guess. We build a goals-based plan around your specific income, expenses, and lifestyle so you can see clearly what retirement looks like for you. Our job is to give you the clarity and confidence to make that call on your own terms.
- I've never worked with a financial advisor. Where do we even start?
We start by listening, to what you want, what you've built, and what keeps you up at night. Money doesn't come with instructions, and we don't expect you to walk in with all the answers. We'll walk through everything together, step by step, so you understand what we're doing and why.
- What if I don't understand investing? Will I be lost in these conversations?
Education comes before everything else at Granite Sky. We believe you should understand every decision we make together, not just be told what to do. Our goal is for you to leave every meeting feeling more informed, not more confused.
- How is Granite Sky different from other firms I've talked to?
We're independent, which means our advice is driven by your goals, not by products we're incentivized to sell. We combine more than 20 years of experience with planning tools and strategies that have evolved with the times. We like to say we offer Mercedes-level service at Acura-level prices, and we mean it.
- I'm thinking about relocating after I retire. Can you still work with me?
Absolutely. We serve clients in New York, Arizona, and beyond, and we're built for exactly this. Many of our clients make their money in New York and then take it with them to Florida, the Carolinas, Virginia, or wherever life leads. Your plan moves with you.
