WEALTH ADVISOR

With warmth and curiosity, I value the opportunity to guide my clients through their own unique financial path so they can live the life they dream of.

B. Spencer Rolls – My Story

I appreciate the entrepreneurial spirit and the passion that business owners have for their company, and helping them to achieve their goals is very rewarding. My experience in the complex world of investments and markets leads to well-informed conversations with clients and other professionals involved in their financial care.

Since joining the financial industry in 2007, I have seen various sides of the financial and business worlds along the way. I have worked in mature companies and in new ones, observing how different business models are needed at different seasons in a company’s growth.

I see a parallel between my early life as a sport fishing lodge operator and guide and the work that I do today. My role with Legacy Family Office of Assante Financial Management Ltd. is essentially the same as it was when I was a sports fishing guide; help the client achieve their goals by guiding them where they need to be at the right time. That moment when a client realizes they’ve achieved what they set out to do is when all the hard work, careful planning and knowledgeable positioning finally pays off!

What I really appreciate about working as a part of the Legacy Family Office team is that we have a holistic, cooperative approach in serving our clients. Legacy is unique in that we serve whole families, and the families we work with come in all shapes and forms. My contribution to the team and our clients is a deep cross-industry knowledge that allows me to explain how everything comes together to drive the results our families want.

Outside of the finance focus of my career and when not at the office, I can often be found with my wife either exploring BC’s wilderness or immersed in the world of music. These are two passions that we share and they both provide us with inspiration and enjoyment, whether we are hiking to and camping in some remote corner of the province, or writing and playing music together in our home.
