jay g Jersey City
@@michelleelmore5533 her youtube channel " Courtnee Futch "
How does someone make 200 cakes per month while working full-time and commuting into the city AND hosting dinner parties on the side? I'm in awe of how she finds the time to do all of this.
I honestly have no idea I get tired after my 9-5
@@ronnchapman7944 Ikr
That's like 6 cakes a day!
It really seems like her passion so she enjoys doing it. So I guess that makes all the difference.
If u want it bad enough there’s nothing u can’t do
She has the composure and professionalism of a 40 year old, truly a queen and star.
Courtnee at 25: making 158k a year

It was free for me to contribute to your goal. Now I hope you aim higher. You're young so you will be ok.
@@beatricerights don't worry i have an online job commenting isn't the only thing i do
This woman has accomplished so much as 25. She is so well spoken and hyper efficient. Bravo!
This is an accomplished women, and at 25!!! Imagine where she will be in 10 years. I’m inspired by her, I got no excuse 🤷🏻♀️
Not only is she rich in terms of money (making a good salary), she is rich in terms of lifestyle because she loves what she does. Truly an inspiration.
She’s beautiful, smart, ambitious, I love her decor and I like how she talks. I can’t believe she’s only 25, she’s totally killing it!!
Shes a hard worker too
Yesssz
She looks 35 too
Right I am a little jealous babe is stunning, smart, makes a good income, and has a decent standing social life, with a totally cute apartment.
#goals
She seems so chill, I wanna be her friend!
Let's be friends, sis!
@@CourtneeFutch Yayyy gonna follow you on IG!
Me too
Gorgeous, mature, successful, skillful and stylish. She’s got it all!
To everyone comment on how she only has 12K in savings, you also need to realize she is 25 and has a MASTERS degree. She probably just started working within the past 2 years at most.
Hi! I actually finished my MS in 2016 at 21. It's kind of a long story lol. But admittedly, I wasn't working jobs with the highest salaries when I first finished grad school so I'm catching up now! Thanks for your kindness!
Courtnee Futch omg you’re such an inspiration!
Courtnee Futch I’m obsessed with your kitchen decor and setup! I just subscribed to your channel for the recipes too. You’re very inspiring! So happy for you that you are doing so well in your career!
I save like 10k a year with just a bachelors and I make like an eighth of what she makes. She is doing well but being good at making money is not necessarily being good at saving it.
Courtnee Futch you’re doing great!!! I’m 24 year old black woman and you’re inspiring me
She speaks very well and flow so soothingly. At 25, she has a clear vision of what she wants to do and for the future. I wish her all the best for her future endeavors.
i love her personality and how real she was being!
love this woman. She is killing it
Point blank
Aja I cant wait for you to make video like this one day
@@sara2jujo I'm waiting for my invite ;)
Her loans could be paid off in 6 months
This feels more like "refinery29 sweet digs" rather than a money tour
I enjoy the combination of both tbh.
I absolutely loved this woman's aesthetic and interests. Her side businesses are so cool and she's absolutely killing it. More like this please!!
This girl is gorgeous and is by far the most mature 25 year old I’ve ever seen
The way in which this boss carries herself just exemplifies magic.
WOW she can cook, paint, mix drinks, DIY creative queen. My only skills are the internet/instagram and I’m older. WTF is wrong with meeee 😭 🤦🏾♀️
Don't worry we all have gifts and talents. God has given each person gifts and abilities, you just have to tap in so you'll know what yours are. You were made for greatness! So smile! 😀😀
And even if you are older, it's not to late.
You can always learn, the internet is very helpful.
Shes doing so good and shes talented
Don’t worry, she’s part of the minority. Most people are like you and I
Graham is gonna tell her to buy a camera and look up photography lessons on youtube to save that $400/month
I agree she can then turn that into another income offer it to other chefs and bakers
I agree! But she might outsource this due to time. The girl is BUSY!
@@MissMBA Right, she could do it herself but taking photos and editing is a time sink!
Hi Marian ¿Puedo conocerte? Soy Mohamed de Marruecos
this is black girl magic🥳❤️❤️❤️❤️
I brought race into it because black women are not always able to make a name for themselves ❗️❗️❗️why does it matter 🤨
@@ccstars7423 Because representation matters when you're usually so under represented on these platforms. I'm going to assume you have the privilege of not knowing what that feels like.
Gabby Anyce PERIODT!
CCStars STFU
CCStars
why not, shows that any race are as equally capable of fulfilling the “American Dream.”
She's lovely and her voice is very soothing.
Totally agree. Her voice and she is so well spoken.
She needs a podcast!
Idk why but she kind of reminds me of Jodie Comer lol
She is obviously a Star in the making. She’ll be very well known soon.
I love how she’s doing multiple things in her life that she enjoys.
Me too!
She finna catch this youtube check after making a channel lol
And shes already doing good and makes a lot of money in her field
She betta!
As she should
Yes girl I told her as well.
“Just purchased Louboutin sandals that I’m excited to wear this summer”
But summer 2020 got canceled 😔
Grant Solomon keep hope alive! We still have time.
Dude people can still go out. Summer's not going anywhere.
She can wear them summer 2021 then...
CocoaBean they’ll be out of season
womp womppppppp
She makes me feel like a slacker... working full time and 2 businesses. Go girl!!!! So motivational!!!
Boss babe!! I feel like she’s not even 25😩 I want her to be my big sister and I’m 27😂 So inspiring💕
Love all the touches of blue she has throughout her house! Well spoken and hardworking woman. Great pick Glamour!
She screams “BOSS”
She is beautiful just like her space.
As someone with interests in interior designing, painting, art, photography, cooking, baking, and diy projects...she is so inspiring and only 25! Truly incredible.
wow, way to go courtnee! i remember hearing about her when i was at syracuse university. i believe she started thundercakes in her dorm at SU, if i’m not mistaken. it’s so awesome to see her still thriving and growing!
Imagine being in your 20s and making a six figure salaru
Pancake Pancake I did. It’s not rare in big cities.
@@euenfheiejrj you made me Google lol. Only 30% of new Yorkers make 6 figures. Lots of old big money there. Average nyc millennial income for 2019 is actually 38k.
Colorful Codes I think it depends who you’re around. I doubt anyone I knew made $38k in NYC when I lived there but maybe they did? A lot of my friends made six figures though.
@@euenfheiejrj If you made 6 figures your more likely to be around others who are making the same so your experience isn't saying much.
Eobard Thawne Exactly. I made six figures in my 20s and I naturally associated with people in the same income level as me.
Where can I find people like her to be friends with?
Shruthi S R That is THE question of the decade.
These are so hopeful. THANK YOU.
So proud to see an African brand in the kitchen, I use Nomu as well...chef tings lol
Her apartment is so beautiful
And she is a total boss.
She’s so likable and level headed. 😊
absolutely adorable! beautiful black woman successful and killing it at 25! 🙌🏾
Wish we could have these videos regularly.
How she has to do all that ,and look absolutely stunning. Is beyond me.
Hats off to you sis! You are a driven and creative spirit. Keep inspiring.
I LOVE HER!!!!! I LOVE HER APARTMENT!!!!! I LOVE HER FOOD!!!!!! HER ENERGY!!!!! THE DIY!!!!!
We've decide to stan a queen who living life and living it WELL
Also love the shoes and the closet. I have been in such a funk lately and not feeling like myself but this is definitely sign I needed to have more fun creatively.
What a BOSS! Beautiful and successful black woman! Go ahead and show your worth, love it!!
This is hands down the best video I’ve seen on this series! She has a cooking series on her page too? Wait til Graham see’s this.
Smart girl!!
Im sure in these quarantined times, she probably heavily relies on her E-Commerce business becuz theres no going into NY for events rite now im sure?
Love her apartment
Jersey is expensive😩 bless her heart. She’s so well put together. I loved this!!!
She know her finances like the back of her hand. Amazing!!!
Shes beautiful.... Shes a boss and 25 wow
This woman is amazing! She's so cool!
Love her apartment. So cozy!!!
She has a life God bless her and the path she is on . Don't let nothing distract you when your ready to get distracted girl let Happen but for now u goood
My favorite by far. She's so artist, impressive, and downright real!
She’s SO talented and calm! I loved watching this. I live in NYC and will definitely be hitting up Thundercakes or The Spred sometime soon! Go girl!
Her apartment looks amazing and the food looks even better!
I am in awe of this wonderful young woman. We're the same age and she's inspiring me so much!
She’s so busy but still has so much fun! How!? Lol
She's doing really well for a 25 year old. Good luck to her.
She is very inspiring and hardworking. Good for her!
I love how she gets so much done but her space looks so chill.Wow she is so dope!
I am in awe of her hustle. Congrats Queen!
Yassss! I love this series! I'm so excited to see a new video! This queen's loft is eclectic, colorful and beautiful! Not to mention, I can't skip over the fact that it's therapeutic for her to wash dishes 😭 I could never. Lol
Entrepreneurial spirit at its finest 💪💪, I will definitely trying some of her dishes
Props Lady!! I had all the energy at 25 now at 39, I umm, do not lol "but" I still love party foods, decor and have 25 yrs of expertise. 20 years in catering, restaurants and hotels, and weddings but just burned out doing it physically but honestly haven't done all I wanted in diy event food and decor, just been doing for others;/. So this is inspiration to find another way especially with e-commerce. Thanks for sharing❤️
Love her voice and demeanor so soothing and carefree shes awesome
Super beautiful space! I love how her personality shines throughout everything she does!
She’s a very good story teller. Love her aesthetics😍😍
She’s so amazing! I could listen to her all day. Nothing she can’t do!
I've been waiting for this for so long!!
This was really cool. I love hearing how people budget and spend their money.
Building the life you want and getting that money! Love her story!
Love her energy ⭐️
I love this! Gorgeous woman utilizing all her talents creating multiple sources of income and seems to be pursuing her passions 🙌🏼
wow so cool!! definitely going to check out that bakery business. what a beautiful apartment!!
Never knew 20 somethings could be this mature and ambitious!! ❤️🥰.
I’m in San Diego California right now ... and that fried chicken just looks so perfect right about now lol 👌🏼
Wow! This one was good!! This girl has her head on right! I honestly thought chefs had to have short nails and no nail polish. She made it clear you can professionally cook and still have beautiful long nails. I guess she ultimately wants to be a chef full time once her second career truly takes off. ✈️
She would be a caterer, not a chef.
I love this! This is so inspiring!
Now this young lady has her ish...together!!!!!! Love it!!!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰
Lovedddddd it! She’s amazing and sooo inspiring!!!!
Gorgeous skin. She is absolutely beautiful.
I rewatch this video because she such an inspiration ❤️
Awwwwww Courtnee, I’m so proud of you!!!
I’ve watched this 20 times... just so cool and inspiring! Plus that drink sounds taaassttyyy
I tried one of her cake before at my friend's birthday party! super-rich and yummy! and a really reasonable price. the whole cake costs 40 bucks, and feed about 20 people. highly recommended butter pound cake!
She is so calming I love it ❤️
Girl you are just everything i really enjoyed watching this! ❤️
That nightstand story was beautifully humble ❤️
Wow, she really knows how to economize and upcycle. This inspires me to be more resourceful and creative. Great watch!
She's truly inspiring!
Yes! She is doing her thing! Go girl !!
Beautiful and driven.
Elegant and well articulated lady.
Her man will be a winner.
I love her vibe and personality
She’ll be rich very soon.
Nia doubt it. She’s not saving ANYTHING
She said not yet towards retirement!
Shes already to me or at least wealthy. She is living good already I could too off of that much anyone could
She's already Rich
Absolutely love this! Go off sis!
I love this series. I love her voice, too.
She’s so smart and creative I love this!
