Investments Advisor donations in the 2008 FEC cycle
Filers who listed Investments Advisor itemized $688,089 in FEC individual contributions in the 2008 presidential cycle — 234 receipts from 112 donors. Investment Advisor, Financial Advisor, and Investment Adviser are neighboring strings, not this cell. The occupation string INVESTMENTS ADVISOR sums to $5,102,747 across harvested cycles; this 2008 cell is 13.5% of that sum. FEC.gov stores the occupation as typed. This page is the join of the Investments Advisor occupation table and the 2008 election-cycle table, not a restatement of either hub.
Key figures
- Investments Advisor × 2008: $688,089.
- 234 receipts from 112 donors.
- 13.5% of the $5,102,747 INVESTMENTS ADVISOR total.
- Filer-entered occupation; a broker-dealer PAC or an adviser-association committee is a different table.
Investments Advisor × 2008
LobbyVault stores this URL because two tables share rows: the Investments Advisor occupation aggregate and the 2008 election-cycle aggregate. The overlap is $688,089 on 234 itemized individual lines from 112 donor keys. INVESTMENTS ADVISOR is the exact plural string. Investment Advisor without the s is a different occupation key. FEC.gov does not verify an RIA registration. Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Investments Advisor in 2008 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $688,089.
Share of INVESTMENTS ADVISOR is not share of all 2008 receipts. 13.5% describes this title bucket only. 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 2008 donations funded contracts or grants. Do not merge this cell with Investment Advisor (singular). The harvested string here is INVESTMENTS ADVISOR.
INVESTMENTS ADVISOR as typed, not an SEC adviser census or a Form ADV extract
Open Investments Advisor donations for the $5,102,747 roll. That hub still holds $4,414,658 outside 2008. Most of the occupation total is not this cycle’s cell when the year share is 13.5%. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the year.
Investments Advisor in 2008 is still the same filer-entered string as every other year on the occupation hub. What changes is the two-year clock and the harvested sums $688,089, 234, and 112. Keep both sides of the name when the dollars are quoted.
234 investments advisor receipts in 2008
234 is a line count, not 112 one-time gifts. Repeat itemization inside the same two-year window raises the gifts-per-donor figure to about 2.1. Mean dollars remain about $2,941 per line and $6,144 per donor in the cell. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by INVESTMENTS ADVISOR.
Donor keys are not named on this page. The packet supplies counts, not identities. Do not invent contributors, employers, or committees to explain $688,089. Investment Advisor, Financial Advisor, and Investment Adviser are other keys when those characters appear. The 2008 election cycle hub is the next click for named committees in that year, still without attaching those names to this occupation cell unless the live table shows the join.
Occupation versus PAC and an SEC adviser census or a Form ADV extract
Investments Advisor in 2008 is not an SEC adviser census or a Form ADV extract. It is not an SEC RIA census, a Form ADV roll, or a CFP directory. The harvested occupation field is the string INVESTMENTS ADVISOR. Recodes into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class are researcher-built and are not this join.
Unitemized money never appears in $688,089. In-kind goods and earmarks without this occupation string are outside the cell. Committee PACs and other committee filings sit on committee reports, not on this individual-contribution occupation join. Keep itemized in the sentence.
How to cite investments advisor money in 2008
Write Investments Advisor, 2008, $688,089, 234 contributions, and 112 donors in one sentence. Add 13.5% of $5,102,747 if the occupation share matters. Source FEC.gov. That sentence is the join. It is not a license census and not a federal award total.

Why this tie page is not either hub
Use Investments Advisor donations when the question is every cycle under INVESTMENTS ADVISOR. Use the 2008 election cycle when the question is every occupation in 2008. Use this page when the question is both: Investments Advisor and 2008, $688,089, 234 receipts, 112 donors.
Repeat the four numbers together: $688,089 in the 2008 cycle, 234 contributions, 112 donors, and 13.5% of $5,102,747. That sentence is the join. It is not a license census and not a federal award total. Do not merge this cell with Investment Advisor (singular). The harvested string here is INVESTMENTS ADVISOR.
