Our Story
For the Sake of What? Back in the day when people commuted to work by foot and everything was built by hand, a traveler came upon three people working with stone. Curious what they were doing, the traveler asked the first worker: “What are you doing with these stones?” Without looking up at all from his work and with his head down the worker replied: “I am simply a stonecutter and I am cutting stones.” Not satisfied with that answer, the traveler approached the second worker and asked him: “What you are doing with these stones?” At this the second worker paused, looked at the stones for a brief moment and replied: “I am a stonecutter and I am cutting stones to build a wall.” The traveler, now confused about the different answers, approached the third worker and asked: “What are you doing with these stones?” The third worker stopped what he was doing, dropped his chisel to his side, looked at the traveler, studied the stones, gazed far up into the sky and replied: “I am a stonecutter and I am building a cathedral.”
Three workers, each engaged with the same kind of work, each with a very different perspective about that work, each with a very different vision about what their work is in service to. As Stonecutter Advisors we strive to focus on “For the Sake of What?” in regard to our clients’ financial goals and objectives - To help them build their own “Financial Cathedrals” that might stand for generations to come.

2Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan’s investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan’s flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan’s investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state’s own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state’s tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risk factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences.
