Financial Consultant political money — 2014 cycle

$955,588 in itemized individual contributions is the FEC.gov join between the occupation FINANCIAL CONSULTANT and the 2014 election cycle. That cell covers 315 contributions from 154 donors. The occupation’s all-cycle total is $13,786,562, so 2014 is 6.9% of the labeled roll. This page is the occupation-and-cycle match, not a FINRA representative census, an RIA roster, or a bank PAC.

Key figures

  • $955,588 tagged Financial Consultant in the 2014 FEC cycle.
  • 315 contributions from 154 donors; about $3,034 per contribution.
  • 2014 is 6.9% of the occupation’s $13,786,562 all-cycle total.
  • Occupation string, not a license census, firm PAC, or USAspending award file.
  • Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by occupation and cycle.

Financial Consultant as occupation, 2014 as the cycle

Two FEC fields define the cell: occupation FINANCIAL CONSULTANT and election cycle 2014. Matching rows sum to $955,588, 315 contributions, and 154 donors. Financial Consultant is a typed occupation. FEC.gov does not confirm Series 7 licenses or advisory registrations. The occupation hub is $13,786,562 across every cycle in the aggregate. The 2014 cycle hub mixes every other occupation that used that year. Neither hub restates this intersection; this tie page exists because the two dimensions meet.

2014’s dollar share is 6.9% ($955,588 of $13,786,562). The remainder, $12,830,974, sits in other cycles on the occupation hub. A few hundred lines from 154 donors with a four-figure mean is a thinner, higher-dollar cell than many 2014 occupation keys. Correlation between a job title and a two-year FEC window is a reporting overlap, not causation of an election outcome. Itemized individual receipts are the coverage. Unitemized money never appears in $955,588.

The Financial Consultant string across every cycle

$13,786,562 is the occupation-side denominator. It is not limited to 2014. Consultant, Financial Advisor, and Investment Advisor are other occupation keys if stored separately. Adding those keys to $13,786,562 would be a researcher-built recode, not this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered on itemized individual receipts.

Open Financial Consultant donations for the $13,786,562 roll. Open the 2014 election cycle hub for every occupation in that window. All occupations and All FEC ties place this pair beside other occupation-cycle pages without combining dollar figures.

154 donors and a higher mean gift

Dividing $955,588 by 315 contributions yields about $3,034 per gift. Dividing by 154 donors yields about $6,205 per donor. Gifts per donor average about 2.0 (315 ÷ 154). Those ratios describe this string in 2014, not payroll at firms that employ people with similar titles.

154 is a donor-key count inside the occupation × cycle aggregate, not a headcount of everyone who held the job in 2014. Repeat itemization, couples filing separately, and people who used the string on some receipts but not others all move the 154 figure. The cycle hub still holds every other occupation’s 2014 receipts beside this cell.

What 6.9% of Financial Consultant dollars is not

A 6.9% share of Financial Consultant-coded dollars from 2014 does not mean the occupation caused those gifts, and it does not mean people with that title funded a policy outcome. Occupation and cycle are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Independent expenditures, committee-to-committee transfers, and unitemized gifts are out of scope.

Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger. This join does not claim that 2014 donations funded contracts or grants. Quote $955,588 as itemized individual receipts tagged FINANCIAL CONSULTANT in 2014, source FEC.gov, and stop there.

How to cite Financial Consultant × 2014

A complete claim names Financial Consultant and 2014, then $955,588, 315 contributions, 154 donors, and 6.9% of $13,786,562, source FEC.gov. Do not convert 154 keys into licensed or employed practitioners. Do not fold independent expenditures or USAspending awards into the cell. Keep both sides of the name—Financial Consultant and 2014—whenever the dollars are quoted. Mean gift $3,034 and mean per donor $6,205 travel with those counts; they do not travel with a licensing board.

Occupation hub, cycle hub, and adjacent finance titles

The occupation hub still holds $12,830,974 outside 2014. Most of the $13,786,562 roll is not this cycle’s cell. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the year, not either hub restated. Consultant, Financial Advisor, and Investment Advisor are other occupation keys if stored separately. Those titles are not parents of FINANCIAL CONSULTANT on this page. Gifts per donor in 2014 average about 2.0. That ratio is 315 divided by 154, not a measure of turnout.

Repeat the four numbers together: $955,588 in the 2014 cycle, 315 contributions, 154 donors, and 6.9% of $13,786,562. That sentence is the join. It is not a license census and not a federal award total.
