AXA Advisors - Charlie Stanton - Financial Advice, Financial Planning, Retirement, Investments

CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional

My name is Charlie Stanton. Welcome to my website.

 As a financial professional with AXA Advisors, LLC, and an active member of the Seattle, Washington community, I am dedicated to helping individuals and businesses build their financial futures.

To stay on top of my field and develop my professional skills over my 14-year career, I have regularly attended industry training and certification programs. This includes completing the curriculum and passing the rigorous exams for the:

 

  •  CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional (CFP®)
  •  Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU)
  •  Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC)
  •  Chartered Advisor for Senior Living™ (CASL™)
  •  FINRA Securities Registrations: Series 6, 7, 63, 65, 53, and 24

I also regularly attend continuing education classes so that clients can count on me to provide accurate, up-to-date information. I have been awarded the title of Retirement Planning Specialist by AXA Advisors, based upon the succesful receipt of a Certificate in Retirement Planning from the Wharton School of Business.

My education, experience and professional affiliations have fostered my practical approach to offering financial products and planning services to my clients. Rather than just recommending a hodgepodge of unrelated products, first I will consider your specific financial goals and investment objectives. Working together, I will help you to develop a sound strategy to address your goals. Then, as a registered representative of AXA Advisors, LLC, and an insurance agent of AXA Network, LLC, I can recommend the appropriate products and services to help you execute your strategy. It is also important to review your situation regularly and make changes as needed. I believe in maintaining long-term relationships with my clients.

My wife Abby and I live in Bellevue, Washington with our 2 children. Thanks for visiting.
