Bob Walczak

Financial Advisor

Bob has been in the financial services industry since 1988 and has seen quite a bit of growth and volatility. Bob’s dream was to advise clients who believed that having a plan, following through with that plan, and staying the course would allow everyone to succeed.

The first part is now a reality, as Bob not only has a list of loyal clients, but they are his friends as well. The second part of his dream is now working with his son, Robert. Since 2009, he has watched his son adopt the same principles while sharing similar results and success. They are very excited to continue on a journey to help as many folks in the future as they have in the past.

Bob currently lives in Londonderry with his wife, Shelly. They love to spend summer weekends boating up at Lake Winnipesaukee. His hobbies include spin class, home improvement, and most of all cooking and grilling up delicious meals. Bob is excited to now be a grandfather and enjoys spending time with the grandkids and Sunday family dinners.

Robert J. Walczak

Financial Advisor

Robert grew up watching his father build this business and was taught to save early and dream big. By 9 years old, he had scraped together enough allowance money and revenue from lemonade stands to buy into his first mutual fund. Like many kids from New England, he had dreams of one day playing quarterback for the Patriots. Unfortunately for Robert, that didn’t quite pan out, but the Patriots seem to have succeeded just fine without him.

Robert began his own career in financial services in 2004 and joined Granite State Wealth Management in 2009. He graduated with honors from the University of New Hampshire with a Bachelor of Science in finance and economics and also completed an Advanced Study in Financial Planning at Merrimack College. Robert is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and is fully licensed to provide his clients with the independent and objective advice they need and deserve.

Robert & his wife Lauren live in Londonderry, NH with their two daughters, Ellie & Sadie and their dog Teddy. The Walczak family enjoys spending time outdoors, traveling, and watching timeless Disney classics where they can sing all the words. In his spare time, Robert enjoys training for various endurance events. He is a proud finisher of the Ironman Triathlon and the Boston Marathon.

Robert feels blessed beyond words to be part of a family business with such a great group of clients. Every day he draws great satisfaction from helping his clients protect what they have worked so hard to achieve.

Robert's acquired industry registrations and certifications include:

  • CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®) professional

  • Accredited Investment Fiduciary® (AIF®)

  • FINRA Series 6, 7, 63, and 66*

Teddy

Office Dog

Teddy has many roles here at Granite State Wealth Management. Although he does not participate in major financial decisions, he is the official mascot, official greeter, and official office dog. He is 13 pounds of hypoallergenic hair and love. While he has just entered his adult life, he both looks and acts like a puppy.

When you come in to visit us, Teddy will keep you company in the waiting area, and, if you'd like, he can sit on your lap during your appointment to make you feel more at home. He loves peanut butter and squeaky plush toys, as well as long walks to anywhere.
