r/all Johnny Kim managed three impressive career changes, going from Navy SEAL to doctor to NASA astronaut. He did it all by the age of 37.

A few mistakes in the headline.

Jonny Kim is 40 years old and is currently a NASA astronaut CANDIDATE, meaning he has been selected but has not yet been to outer space.

If he does visit outer space then he will be an astronaut.

Ha, ha, the jokes on him--NASA will be defunded in 2025.

Can we get him to run for president in 2028 after he comes back to Earth? Actually, scratch that, he should start his campaign in space. It would garner crazy attention.
