Summary

Roland Frasier was born and raised in the small town of Covington, Virginia where the population was 5,000 at the time. It was a paper mill town and very rural. His grandad was a baptist minister. His dad worked for the federal government early in his life. He loved growing up with his cousins camping and spending a lot of time outdoors. The most influential people to him growing up were his mother, his grandfather and his father. His mother was 100% supportive and overprotective. His grandfather had a shop, and was a tinkerer that fixed things. It sparked his curiosity and taught him how things worked. His father would take him to lunches and Roland worked as a runner for his father’s tax law firm. He became fascinated with all of the various ways his father’s clients made money. His interest in business and how it worked was peaked during that time. One of his most formative memories growing up was working as an assistant tennis pro. His responsibilities were to sweep the tennis courts and pick up tennis balls from practice. He rented a blower to do the sweeping job faster and his employer had a problem with it. He worked too fast and they wanted him there for the required time even though he had figured out a way to get the task done in much less time. Later he was working as a runner for his father’s law firm and he discovered that how they operate is really inefficient. He relates to his employer that if they just give him all of the places he is supposed to deliver ahead of time he can map out his route and get his job done much faster and more efficiently. When he was clerking in law school he would be tasked with doing legal research. He would pay for a service that enabled him to get it done much faster than normal turn around times. The law firm was frustrated with him over that too. That is when he realized that he could figure out ways to work much more efficiently than most people. It was very clear to him that he couldn’t work for somebody. He attended University of Richmond because it was a great liberal arts school and graduated with an accounting degree. He then attended law school at California Western in San Diego. He started his law firm in San Diego and owned it for a number of years.
