Matthew Richardson

Your Financial Coach

A great financial coach helps bridge the gap between complicated jargon and real-life decisions, making you feel empowered rather than overwhelmed. If your advisor isn’t explaining things in a way that makes sense to you, it might be time to seek someone who prioritizes education as much as strategy.

As a licensed Financial Advisor, Matthew provides comprehensive financial planning and investment management. He prioritizes building meaningful relationships with his clients, taking the time to understand their unique situations, goals and aspirations.

Credentials

After nearly a decade at TD Ameritrade/Charles Schwab, where he most recently held the role of Vice President, Financial Advisor, Matthew brought his expertise to First Investments & Planning. Throughout his career, he has remained committed to guiding clients in building wealth and realizing their unique financial objectives.

Matthew holds the Series 7, 63 and 65 securities registrations as well as licenses for Life, Annuities, Sickness, Accident, and Health insurance.

Matthew holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois.

Passions

Matthew resides in Fremont, Nebraska, with his wife, Nelle, their two children, and their beloved dog, Riley. Beyond his work advising clients, he enjoys quality family time, cycling, golf, grilling, and expanding his vinyl record collection—all while passionately following his favorite sports teams. Committed to giving back, he serves on the Board of Directors for CareCorps’ LifeHouse, an organization dedicated to providing a 24/7 homeless shelter, affordable housing, a food pantry, and clothing to the Fremont community. He is also deeply involved in his faith, actively participating in Fremont Evangelical Free Church.
