SYRACUSE, NY
Matthew Payne is a second-generation financial advisor with a background as unique as it is diverse. His journey began as a trained biochemist, evolved into a career as a professional opera singer, and extended into entrepreneurship, all before he became an Investment Fund Specialist. This blend of analytical, creative, and strategic skills has given him a unique perspective on financial advising. Growing up in a household where discussions about 401(k)s, IRAs, life insurance, and estate planning were common topics of conversation, he has now returned to his roots by partnering with his father, a four-decade veteran of the industry, to continue a family legacy of financial advising.
He prides himself in delivering robust investment offerings, retirement preparation strategies, and comprehensive wealth planning services. His experiences across various industries and global travels have shaped his philosophy of simplifying financial complexity and providing clear, actionable strategies.
Why did I join Cypress: Matthew is passionate about helping individuals, businesses, families, and retirees build wealth, plan for retirement, and organize their estates, he believes that anticipating clients' needs and delivering consistent, professional service is key to creating lasting value. With his father and Cypress Financial Consultants LLC, Matthew delivers a seamless financial planning experience.
