About Russell E. Glickstern, CFP®
Hi, I'm Russell E. Glickstern. With over 36 years of experience in the financial industry, I am passionate about helping generations of clients pursue their financial goals. As a Wealth Management Advisor and LPL Financial Representative, I offer independent and personalized investment strategies that address risk and opportunities in any market condition.My core competencies include retirement planning and income strategies, women's financial strategies, estate planning strategies, retirement plan distribution, 401K and IRA allocation, and wealth preservation strategies. Many of my clients are working in healthcare, and education, and retirees from from Westchester County and city/local town agencies.
As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®), I adhere to the high standard of excellence and ethics requirements set forth by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards.
I want my clients to feel secure and comfortable working with the owner of a locally-owned business, who's family grew up in Westchester, and who has been an active part of the community...and someone who is open-minded, flexible and always acts in the client's best interests.
I work closely with my clients and their families to provide portfolio reviews, asset reallocations, and trust services through The Private Trust Company N.A., an affiliate of LPL Financial.
I am honored to have received the Five Star Wealth Advisor Award for multiple years, which reflects my commitment to professional excellence and client satisfaction.
On a personal note, I earned my Bachelor of Science degree from St. John’s University. I have lived in Westchester for 27 years, with my wife, Susan, and our two children. I am a Yankees fan and an avid golfer (17 handicap). My mother and brother live in Florida where I spend a lot of time visiting with family and playing golf.
I'm active in numerous industry community organizations, including membership in the Business Council of Westchester, the Financial Planning Association (FPA) and as a designee for the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc.

We Want Your Voice to be Heard
Wealthtender exists to help people discover trusted and authentic financial professionals and educators who may be a good fit based on their unique needs and circumstances.
Your honest reviews help people decide which financial professionals and educators may be best suited to their individual needs.
The majority of people trust reviews as much as personal recommendations, so what you write in your review should reflect your own opinion and experience.
Tips for Writing a Helpful Review
Be descriptive. Instead of just saying what you like or dislike, share why. What have you enjoyed most or least about your experience with the provider? Have they helped you overcome a difficult financial challenge or strengthened your knowledge about particular money matters? The more details, the better!
Be honest. Your rating and review should reflect your actual experience.
Stay relevant. Ensure your review is helpful to others by avoiding off-topic discussions or personal opinions not relevant to your direct experience.
Make your review easy to read. Reviews should be readable to others. Use proper grammar, avoid excessive capitalization or punctuation, and be sure to check your spelling.
Be yourself. Don’t post as, or pretend to be, someone else, and do not say you’re associated with a person or organization with which you are not.
Be nice. Don’t write abusive, hateful, threatening, or harassing content. Avoid personal threats, hate speech, obscenities, or inflammatory language.
Respect the privacy of others. Don’t post information that can be used to identify another individual or compromise their privacy.
