Buck Financial Advisors, LLC is a proud member of the following societies, and adheres to their standards of professional excellence and integrity:

 Commitment to Excellence and Continued Education

The Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards is a professional regulatory organization which promotes ethics, integrity and professional standards in personal financial planning. This gives the public an opportunity to have access to -- and benefit from -- competent, ethical financial planning. Individuals who meet rigorous certification requirements are certified by CFP Board to use its certification trademark. Charles Buck is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional.

Commitment to Objectivity and Integrity

The National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (NAPFA) which is the largest organization of "Fee-Only" advisors.  "Fee-Only" financial planners are compensated solely by fees from their clients and do not accept commissions or compensation from any other source.  NAPFA membership requirements are among the most stringent in the industry.  Currently, less than 1,000 (of the estimated 650,000 financial advisors in the U.S.) have met the qualifications to use the NAPFA and "Fee-only" trademarked names.

Commitment to helping people from all walks of life

Charles Buck is a GPN Member. The Garrett Planning Network, Inc. (GPN) is a nationwide network of professional, Fee-Only financial advisors. GPN members are dedicated to providing independent, objective financial planning and advice to people from all walks of life, on an hourly as-needed basis. Only 1% of the nation's financial planning firms are structured this way. As staunch consumer advocates and Fee-Only client fiduciaries, GPN Members continue to demonstrate their commitment to serving the public's best interests by making competent, Fee-Only financial advice accessible to all people. Many financial advisors accept clients only if they meet certain income and net worth requirements. GPN members believe, however, that professional, unbiased financial advice is something all Americans need, at least periodically, to build the brightest financial futures. Holding to this philosophy, GPN members offer the same quality, professional advice to all clients, not just the affluent.

Commitment to Professionalism and Objectivity

Charles Buck is member of the Financial Planning Association (FPA), a membership organization for the financial planning community. The FPA is the largest association of professionals dedicated to championing the financial planning process. FPA members are dedicated to supporting the financial planning process in order to help people achieve their goals and dreams. The FPA believes that everyone needs objective advice to make smart financial decisions and that when seeking the advice of a financial planner, the planner should be a CFP™ certificant.
