Chris Anderson began his journey as a financial advisor in 2008 after working in the healthcare field as a physical therapist for nearly 10 years. Passionate about serving others, Chris believed that being a financial advisor was a new opportunity to help people by guiding them toward a confident financial future.
“I get a tremendous sense of satisfaction when I help someone, which is what initially attracted me to the healthcare field,” Chris says. “But I was ready for a change and have always had the desire to own my own business. When my financial advisor approached me about joining his firm, the opportunity intrigued me as a new challenge. After much prayer, contemplation and discussion with others, I decided to follow where I believed God was leading me in my professional career.”
Chris started with a national brokerage firm and took over an existing branch in Webb City, Missouri, in 2008. After successfully transitioning and growing his practice through the challenging market landscape of 2008-2009, he looked for an opportunity to better serve his clients with a practice model that was driven first and foremost by the client’s best interest. This culminated with him joining Cornerstone Wealth Management and opening the first Cornerstone branch in Joplin, Missouri, in 2014.
Today, Chris provides clients with objective financial advice that’s aligned with their overall goals for the future, both immediate and long term. He takes a holistic approach to helping individuals and families prepare for future needs, such as sending kids to college, living the retirement they envision and having an estate plan in place that carries out their wishes. Serving as a trusted advisor, Chris helps educate clients on their investment options and design a comprehensive plan that will serve their entire financial life.
“I love the look in my clients’ eyes when they’re finally starting on a financial journey they’ve been considering for some time or they have confidence that they’re on the right track to pursue their goals,” he says. Chris is registered to work with clients in the following states: AR, AZ, CA, IA, IL, IN, KS, MO, NE, OK and TX.
Outside of work, Chris stays busy with his wife Gina, daughter Kaylie and son Brayden. They are active in their church at Christ’s Church of Oronogo, where Chris serves as a communion server, in men’s ministry and as a sponsor on youth trips. He also spends time cheering on Kaylie in volleyball and Brayden in soccer. When Chris has free time, he enjoys fishing, boating, and off-roading and trail riding with his family.
