Mike Satterlee, a 19-year-old entrepreneur from Clifton Park, New York, has built a 3D-printing business that generated $808,000 in gross revenue in 2025, starting with an investment of roughly $500 in his first printer. His company, CruiseCup, had already generated $601,000 in revenue through September 2026, according to The Indian Express.
The business produces hundreds of orders daily and operates more than 160 3D printers. Despite its rapid growth, Satterlee pays himself just $500 to $1,500 a month, choosing to reinvest much of the money into expanding the company. He also lives with his parents, meaning he does not currently pay rent for his home.
