Living On $230K A Year Selling Ice Cream With My Mom | Millennial Money
Annie is great and all, but the true story is the mom. She came to the US with nothing and rose from a cashier to owning multiple businesses, and raising a daughter who went to Havard. What a lady.
💯
I agree
I was literally saying "Why are we talking about her" to myself. Mom was mastermind behind everything
My father came during the Vietnam war Cambodian refugees and he owns 4 houses, 3 boats, 3 cars a Corvette, hummer H2 and BMW M3 ... And he's 70 years old right now he's a welder, and body man, mechanic he might not know English as much but he gets the job done as he owns a car shop
Totally agree
This has to be one of my favorite episodes. Annie and her mom Sarah are so hard-working and their story is so inspiring.
Agree and even more importantly, they were given this opportunity by America, the greatest country on earth. This hardwork and everything wouldn't go as long in a third world country
imagine a customer earning 50k a year is forced to give tip to someone earning 230 k a year..
@@msdadsfsx no one is forcing them to tip
@@mekibe103 then why the touch screen shows how much u want to tip in cafe.. With people from back of the queue watching you. Some are forced into shame to tip.
@@msdadsfsx blame the apps.. not the business owners. Clover, Square, etc.
The mom is badass and the daughter is hard working and grateful to her mom which is great to see ❤
Spoiled daughter
The fact she helps her employees with recommendation letters, SAT help, tutoring, etc is really beautiful. I wish I had someone like her when I was growing up.🎉❤
When youre successful always help other people fufil their potential.
They opened 2019 right before the pandemic and are doing extremely well. Goes to show anything is possible ❤
Now, I get it. I lived there and never heard of the shop. During COVID...
I’m so jealous of this mother-daughter relationship ❤️
One can fly w two wings 😅
I live in DC, and my extended family loves Sarah's Handmade Ice Cream!! Hearing the owner's story just makes me love it even more.
How is the Ice Cream Quality?
@@btsdancestudio5691 They make the ice cream fresh regularly so it's soft and the flavors are very clean/pure tasting
@@jkim6518 Does it taste like Gelato?
As an immigrant from northern Italy who came here with my mom in the 1990s, I felt this! We came here with $800 and a one-way ticket. Now I am a physician and my mom is a nurse!
Good on you man keep doing what you’re doing, god bless you and your mom 👍
@@AmirA-qo3jv thank you Amir!! And thanks to all of the kind hearted people of RUclips!
Do you need to apply visa or sny documents etc to come and stay and live in America?
So how did you guys survive?
I emigrated to italy and now i am a successful designer
When she said I edit college essays, at that moment I fell in love, WoW what a BOSS! To say i work for ice cream store and the boss helps all the worker with there school work and she graduated from Harvard is impressive and inspiring
Such a heartwarming Mother's Day story! Hats off to Annie and her mother 👏
That’s my best friend! Can confirm she has a heart of gold.
Working for Annie and Sarah was such a valuable experience! They truly are dedicated to their employees and community! And Sarah crafts the BEST ice cream ever!
What ppl don’t realize is that most daughters will mirror their mom, so if mom is happy so will daughter.
HAPPY MOTHER’s DAY.
The love she has for her mother is so obvious, just the way she looks at her, and it’s just so beautiful
They got a really good location.. That's the key to successful small businesses..
Respect
“She’s my life companion”😩 omg so sweet - one of my fave episodes! Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies!
I like her confidence. Even started from humbling background, the girl really shines in her confidence.
I loved how this video did not mentioned anything about how they went about starting an ice cream business (having no background in ice cream making) and what is the current relationship right now with the ex-husband/father in the family. Nice
as a korean gal who grew up in the dmv raised by a single immigrant mom i LOVE annie's story!!!! incredibly heartwarming to hear what she does to build up the teens who are saving money up before heading out to college too. cheers to their success and a true second retirement
One of the best episodes so far!! Thank you so much for sharing Annie and Sarah's story with us all ◡̈
This is so heartwarming, I love how her mother says about her daughter "she's my life companion". They have a beautiful relationship wishing them many more years of success ❤
That is actually very unhealthy!! However lots of parents do this where they use their child as an emotional husband/partner etc. They should date or find a separate companion & not use their child as a surrogate partner. Unhealthy & toxic!!
@@lorrainea.285 Those two don't look unhealthy to me. On the contrary.
I love the relationship that she has with her mom. I love Annie’s appreciation for her mother, the mutual respect and how she strives to be a better person and actually work towards it rather than just saying “I wish I’m like that and like this.” She has a wonderful outlook on life and is definitely an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your story with us.
“She’s my life companion.” 🥺🌸
She is so smart and inspirational! Go Annie!
Beautifully filmed, edited, the mom and daughter team are wonderful people with positive outlook.
on behalf of all Sarah Parks, we’re so proud
😂
How many are you?
yoooooooo, can we get a Grace Park added to the mix too.
@@stefamarzpark and Kim are VERY common Korean names. It would be like the name Michael Jones, very generic.
We plan to name our first child Sarah Park, although we will have to change our last name. 🤣🤣
This young lady is : Kindness and very, very, very hard working person with a big heart. Her mom is her everything
Annie and her mom are two of the most hardworking and generous people I have ever met. Their relationship is something so special and truly inspiring. Their success is the result of thoughtful planning, dedication to excellent management and a superior product. All this to say you need to get the ice cream! Sarah’s handmade SLAPS. So happy this deserving business got this feature
Thanks for sharing Annie and Sarah’s story! I love their inspirational episodes and the beautiful relationship between them🍨🧡
Finally an episode that isn't a crazy cheapskate or a privileged jerk. You need more of these
Andrew and I ate here in July 2020 when I first moved to DC and we loved the ice cream! I can't believe now you're also on Millennial Money! Way to go!!
- From your fellow Millennial Money alum, Ashley Chorath & Andrew Tiu
Wow!! CNBC Make It producers are strategic and thoughtful.
They showed a mother and daughter managed business for Mother's Day. So sweet 🤗 🤗🤗
As a son of a korean immigrant family who moved to NA when i was also 9, this is truly heartwarming. Our parents have done so much for us to be able to do the things we can today. I live in california but gosh, shes like my sister all the way in washington dc. Wishing nothing but continued success, love and Fullfillment for her and her family.
This is an amazing story. This is what makes America great, stories like this. Thank you for sharing.
This was an awesome story. I especially like how she's decided "this is what I spend money on (dance and dining)" and yet still saves and invests.
Their relationship 🥹 wow wishing them continued success
A mother-and-daughter tandem!❤ such an inspirational episode,
Reminds me of my 1.5 generation Korean story. Born in Korea but raised in USA. Great story!!!
Probably one of the best stories yet. Love it.
this made me cry the relationship that yall have and btw the mom is so beautiful she looks so young! very inspirational:)
I love how she enjoys food and classes etc . . just investing in experiences that bring her joy
Wow, two inspirational and lovely ladies. They sound like great employers and a credit to all small business owners. If I’m ever in DC I shall visit Sarahs for an ice cream.
한인모녀분들이 열심히 사시는게 여러사람들에게 귀감이 됩니다. 사업 번창하십시오 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for the inspiration, Annie! Graduated from HBS and now happily working as a pastry chef. Glad to know I’m not alone. 😂
It takes guts to go in a different direction like that. All that matters is that you wake up with enthusiasm for your profession. Congrats, brother. 👍
Putting well-earned money into the stock market can be over emphasize for first time investors,unlike a bank where interest is sure thing! Well, basically time are uncertain, the market is out of control,and banks are gradually failing. I'm working on a ballpark estimate of $5m for retirement, and I've a good 6 figure loaded up for this, could there be any opportunity a boomer like me?
There are a lot of strategies to make tongue wetting profits especially in a down market but such sophisticated trades can only be carried out by proper market experts.
That’s true , I’ve been getting assisted by Jessica Katherine Ellis for almost a year now , I started out less than $200k and I’m just $19,000 short of half a million in profits.
@@Christopher-fd4gePlease how can I reach her?
I think I should try this woman I've heard so much good news about her
*JESSICA KATHERINE ELLIS* is easily searchable on Google. She has extensive knowledge of the financial market.reach out to her through her Google page
I've traded with a lot of individuals I've never come across anyone as good as *JESSICA KATHERINE ELLIS* she's so good when it's comes to investment
So inspiring. I seldom make comments but this one really touches my heart. This makes my day.
This is definitely my favorite episode and a great inspiration for me. Thank you 😊💛🖤
An absolutely beautiful story and best wishes for even more success to them both!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Sarah’s handmade tastes so great. They have done a great job and the employees are so friendly. We love Sarah’s!
As someone getting ready to embark in a life long journey of single motherhood with my own daughter. What her mother said, really resonated with me. I feel the same, I want my daughter to be happy and find joy in whatever her heart finds meaningful. I hope one day I have a relationship like this with my own daughter.
Family businesses are much more enjoyable to learn about than some finance or tech business 🤙
As a fellow Korean person, I am proud of her and her mom for their humble beginnings and hard-working nature. However, I think she's a bit naive and presumptuous to already start thinking about scaling her ice cream shop to a 3rd, 4th, and 5th store locations. I think she should keep focusing on her 2 locations before scaling outwards. Scaling your business too quickly always comes with a lot of risks, and you can't assume that customer demand, product quality, and costs will stay constant with additional brick and mortor stores. Ambition is a double-edged sword: it can elevate or sink your business. Times are always good when the money is rolling in, so you need to take a long term view on things before expanding too quickly.
Was looking for this comment. Agree
Great Story ... This is how you be successful in 1 generation .. no help ... just hard work ! Inspirational !!
This is so personal to me. I’m an immigrant also but same age as her (32), I have a violin that I’ve been trying to learn how to play it. I too sold ice cream in my home country with my mother but my mother is no longer here and I feel like I’ve always wanted to be an entrepreneur but don’t know where to begin. This was very inspirational.
Same! I would love to learn Violin.
Such an inspirational story! Congrats Annie and Sarah!
“She’s my life companion” I yelped
By far my fav Millennial Money episode. Very inspiring!
Nice to see you working with your mom. Much success and health to all.
I did not expect to watch this entire video. It’s an interesting story.
I’ve been there so many times! It’s in one of my favorite shopping centers with favorite stores and lunch spots. The ice cream is top quality and creamy. Their shop is such good energy! I love all the books they have out for children to enjoy. They are an inspiration.
One of my favorite stories on this channel so far
A perfect story for Mother’s🙌Day. I have so much respect for her Mother and how Annie is helping those employees by mentoring them.
Love their story and also love their ice cream! We go almost every other Sunday!
‘Go out there, and take those risks , because no one is gonna do it for you ‘ I love this ❤
From Los Angeles California, shout out to these awesome ladies! Keep up the good work. I wish it was closer so I can come support
Kudos to her and her mom surviving in this really tough life now.
I love this! These stories inspire me

Nice mother and daughter duo story.. Congrats to them 🎉
This is a wonderful story. Inspiring. ❤
We love Sarah's Handmade. It's the best and everyone who tries their icecream loves it. Their servings are also very generous. One of the best treats in the DMV
Love their story. This is for sure one of the best episodes.
Aww love this ep! Perfect for Mother’s Day 😊
I ❤️ your ice cream! I stumbled across your River Road location while picking up food from Ledo Pizza.
"She's my life companion" 🥺 beautiful
This is a great story. Happy for her and her boyfriend and mom
I live in DC and surprisingly have never stumbled across this place!! Me and my sister just tried a new ice cream shop tonight and now I gotta add a new one to the list 😂😂 it’s funny she dances at Salsa with Sylvia too, I’ve been considering taking some classes there! If I ever see her I’m definitely saying hi 😂😍😊
I live in the dmv area and this is such an amazing video to see. I’ll have to try this place out for sure, glad to see how well they’re doing
Such an inspirational story and such delicious ice cream!! 👏🏻👏🏻
Annie and her Mom are amazing and phenomenal. Brilliant young lady 👌🏾
Can't lie i shed a few tears at the end, I really loved this episode
I love that this was posted on Mother's Day!
Just look at Charles he can't stop smiling big shout out to Charles👊👊
This is a GREAT EPISODE 😍
My dad gave up his pension so I can continue my education. Now he's dead before I can pay him back. It's great to have your mother still around to enjoy the fruit of your hard work.
This is what and how Korean-Americans do it in the 🇺🇸!! Very proud of my people!!
Annie you truly are one of a kind!
Annie mom is the 🐐 She is the visionary.
This has to be the best episode! ❤
Amazing story--amazing duo!
"Pick an instrument thats cheaper!" 😂😂😂
