VFG Wealth

VFG Wealth Helping families and businesses manage financial risk. A unique approach - ask us about it! Mutual funds are offered through Investia Financial Services Inc.

At Vancea Financial Group, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to financial planning. We believe that to help reduce risk and maximize wealth we must build a relationship with clients that allows us to create the perfect strategy for each individual. That means managing risk on a level that goes beyond assessing your investment risk tolerance or the riskiness of a particular investmen

t. It means understanding the inherent risks in your current financial strategy...and the risk in NOT investing in the products and services that best fit your financial profile.

🏫As families get ready for another school year, it's a season of change.

Maybe your youngest is heading off to school. Your teenager is moving into residence. Or perhaps you've welcomed a new child, bought a home, or started a new job over the past year.

Milestones like these remind us how quickly life moves.

They're also a good opportunity to think about the financial commitments that come with each new chapter. For many families, those milestones include making sure there's a plan in place to help protect the people who depend on them.

Insurance needs aren't the same for everyone. They change over time, just as our families, responsibilities, and priorities do.

If this year has brought some big changes for your family, it's worth having a conversation about what those changes could mean for the future.

Every new chapter brings different priorities. Taking time to think them through today can help your family prepare for whatever comes next.

As summer starts to wind down, our Woodstock team made time for one more important meeting… poolside! ☀️🏊

Samantha, Rachel, Rob and Gesi recently got together with their families for a VFG pool party. It was a chance to step away from the office, enjoy the sunshine and spend some quality time together.

We know that strong teams aren’t built around a boardroom table alone. Taking time to connect outside of work, get to know each other’s families and simply have some fun together helps build the relationships that make us stronger when we’re back at the office.

It was a great way to soak up the last few weeks of summer with a pretty great crew! 💙

Running a successful advisory practice takes more than serving clients well.

It also means managing operations, navigating compliance, investing in technology, building marketing strategies, supporting your team... and somehow finding time to grow your business.

At VFG Wealth, we believe advisors shouldn't have to do it all alone. 🩵

Our team provides the infrastructure, operational support, and resources that allow advisors to spend more time where they make the biggest impact – with the people who trust them most.

If you've been wondering what the next chapter of your practice could look like, let's talk.

✨ Team spotlight: Meet Rob Flood

With over a decade of experience as a financial advisor, Rob is passionate about helping individuals and families build confidence in their financial future. Known for his thoughtful approach and ability to connect with clients at every stage of life, Rob brings both expertise and a strong sense of family to everything he does.

☕ What’s your go-to coffee order?
Dark roast coffee with a little milk and a splash of French vanilla creamer.

📊 What inspired you to build a career in financial planning and wealth management?
I earned my Finance degree from Western University, but my first roles after graduating were in different areas. When an opportunity in the financial world came up, I took a chance – and quickly realized it was the right fit. I like helping people make sense of their finances and building plans that give them clarity and confidence.

🤝 What’s one piece of advice you’d share with someone choosing a financial advisor or planning partner?
Choose someone you feel comfortable with, trust, and can speak openly with. The more honest and transparent those conversations are, the better your advisor can understand your priorities and help guide you toward what matters most.

🧭 Many of our clients are preparing for major life transitions, from retirement to selling a business. How do you help clients navigate those changes with confidence?
It starts with asking the right questions and really listening. Understanding what a client wants to achieve, and why it matters, allows us to build a strategy that supports their goals. When people have a clear plan and guidance, those big transitions feel much less overwhelming.

3️⃣ If you could only use three words to describe VFG Wealth, what would they be?
Family. Strategic. Insightful.

⚾ When you’re not working, where can we find you?
Usually at the hockey arena or the ball diamond coaching, or spending quality time at home with my spouse Val, our kids, and our dog Pepper.

Rob’s thoughtful guidance and family-first mindset reflect the values we live every day at VFG Wealth. We’re proud to have him on our team!

We had some very important visitors stop by our Woodstock office! 🍬😊

Gesi’s kids, nieces and nephews popped in yesterday to say hello. And of course, no visit to VFG would be complete without a trip to the candy machine.

Safe to say, the candy was a hit! Thanks for stopping by (and sweetening up our day!)💙

to an evening we're still talking about. 🎭

As the Stratford Festival season continues, we're looking back at opening night of Death of a Salesman and sharing a few more photos from a memorable evening celebrating the arts, our community, and this incredible production.

As the Production Sponsor for this year’s play, it was an honour to be part of opening night, connect with fellow Festival supporters, and celebrate one of Canada's most iconic cultural institutions.

One of the most meaningful moments of the evening was recognizing the connection between this year's production and our own Tim Ziegler's family. Tim's father, acclaimed actor and director Joseph Ziegler, portrayed W***y Loman in a previous production of Death of a Salesman, making this production especially significant for the Ziegler family.

Death of a Salesman runs through October 24, so there's still plenty of time to experience this remarkable performance for yourself. If you're looking for a memorable day or evening out this summer or fall, we highly recommend adding it to your calendar. Learn more and get tickets here: https://bit.ly/3TDNMS9

We're proud to support the Stratford Festival and the organizations that help our communities thrive through arts, culture, and shared experiences.

🎒 One day you're packing lunches - and before you know it, you're packing up for residence.

The years seem to fly by; and while it's impossible to slow them down, you can prepare for what's ahead.

A Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) is one way to start planning for future education costs while your children are still young.

With an RESP, you can:
🎓 Save for post-secondary education.
💰 Benefit from government incentives like the Canada Education Savings Grant (CESG).
📈 Give your savings the opportunity to grow tax-deferred until they're needed.

The best time to start isn't when high school graduation is around the corner - it's whenever you're able. Even modest, regular contributions can add up over time.

If you'd like to learn more about how an RESP could fit into your family's financial plan, we'd be happy to help.

Summer has a way of giving us perspective. ☀️

A little time away from the day-to-day can bring one question into focus:

"Is there a better way to run my practice?"

If you're an advisor who's spending more time managing operations, compliance, technology, HR, marketing and administration than serving clients, it might be time for a different approach.

At VFG Wealth, we believe advisors should be able to focus on what they do best: building relationships, delivering advice, and helping clients achieve their goals.

We'll help take care of the rest.

As summer winds down and you start thinking about what's next for your business, we'd love to have a conversation about what joining VFG could look like.
