My Mission Statement
Helping clients like you achieve all of your retirement and investing goals through customized investment and financial strategies.
My Story
Based in Richmond, Virginia, Michael Wade Housden is a Certified Financial Planner® with 27 years of experience in the financial services industry. He helps a broad range of individuals plan for their financial future, grow their wealth long-term, and build income strategies for life from multiple sources to accommodate their desired standard of living.
Michael earned his Bachelor of Science in Business Management from Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995. He has spent over 20 years at Morgan Stanley and predecessor firm Smith Barney. With a well-earned reputation for a strong work ethic, professionalism and integrity, Michael has great passion for -- and is deeply devoted to -- helping every client achieve their goals, because he wants to make a difference in their lives.
Michael has extensive experience working with the full spectrum of individuals – from those who have never had a financial plan, to seasoned investors who value professional investment experience. Over time, his practice has evolved into a multi-generational one. Many of his original clients have referred him to their children and grandchildren. Every plan that Michael creates is custom designed specifically for each client’s unique needs – including those they may have yet to consider.
Outside of work, Michael has volunteered for a number of organizations, most notably the alumni group at his alma mater, Virginia Commonwealth University. Among his other charitable endeavors, Michael taught finance to young families at a local hospital for three years.
Michael has been happily married for more than 25 years to his lovely wife Jennifer, a special education teacher. Together, they have two children, daughter and a son. In his free time, he enjoys running and watching sports.

For more information, please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC Client Relationship Summary.
2Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan’s investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan’s flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan’s investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state’s own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state’s tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risk factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences.
