About Val & The CCC
After graduate school, I was overwhelmed by my student loans. I turned my overwhelm into action and paid off over $42,000 in less than 3 years–on a teacher’s salary.
After I became a mom, my heart ached. I dreaded leaving my daughter to go to work every day. After just 4 months of daycare, I quit my job and started my own freelance business to make money online so I could be a stay-at-home mom.
I wrote the book Pay Your Student Loans Fast and started The Common Cents Club to inspire and teach others how to turn debt overwhelm into massive action. Let’s bust the myth that money is complicated, start a revolution that it’s ok to talk about money, and begin using money for what it is–a tool to create your best life.
Testimonies From Val's Book
I never knew writing a book could change so many people’s lives.
Readers just like you are going from lost and overwhelmed with debt to intentionally destroying one loan after another.
Here’s how:
“This book is a must-read for anyone with debt! I felt so overwhelmed with the amount of debt I had and by utilizing the skills I learned from this book, I have been able to pay off one of my husband’s student loans and I am very close to paying off 2 more of mine! I also highly recommend high school readers read this book before making post-high school decisions.”
