Hi, Im Colin Exelby,

And I Founded Celestial Wealth Management In 2009.
I Am A Husband, Father And Business Owner. I Love Helping People Learn About Personal Finance, Challenge Conventional Thinking And Achieve Their Goals.

From an early age, I was a math geek. I traded baseball cards as a kid and was enthralled how the bid-ask spreads worked in my Beckett Baseball Card Monthly Magazine. I attended many card shows in middle school and learned a lot about business and markets for goods. I even had my own booth at a show.

I invested a lot of time…probably too much at that point, following baseball statistics. I tried to identify price-chart patterns and analyze statistics to find undervalued players who may be ready for a break-out. I would then purchase their rookie cards and if they broke out, I would sell them to dealers for a profit. Looking back, I can’t believe how similar that was to my career as a financial advisor.

After a conversation with a client, I began to pivot toward providing financial advice using videoconferencing and screen recording software.

STARTED SEE THE
FOREST THROUGH THE TREES BLOG

I wanted to create a platform to distribute educational content about personal finance for clients as well as people around the world. It’s no secret that financial literacy is generally low and not taught in the education system. I believe the blog can help bridge that gap.
