I did some checking, he’s only 5’11”, so he’s just like the rest of us.

Sounds like a busy guy. Kudos for all that he has accomplished. Probably too busy to get laid.

I bet his Asian parents still give him grief

He’s a first gen American. His father was an abusive alcoholic that committed suicide by cop with his mom and brother in the apartment when he was like 17. He enlisted right after that. His origin story is like freakin Batman.

Served under Jocko in Iraq. They did a podcast. It’s well worth your time.

He’s gonna walk on the moon.

There was a Dragon Mom behind this guy, dogging him every day when he was a kid.

His parents are still disappointed in him because of that one time when he got just a regular "A" instead of an A+

Had the opportunity to meet Jonny Kim a year or two ago. He is an incredibly nice and down to earth guy. He is very grateful to be an American and he loves this country.

Only thing he doesn't have going for him I guess is he may not have earned a ton of money. Just based on where he works. Seals make like $100k a year (I have no idea how they figure that # out but government) I think.


It's not how much you make but what you do with it. Something tells me this guy has a nice portfolio. Also, astronauts, much less one with his resume, can make obscene money consulting with aerospace companies etc. They will pay to have that resume associated with their company and to have him lobby etc.

While he could have probably made more doing something "Wall Street" etc. he is probably very well off.
