About

Hey there everyone! I’m ecstatic that you stumbled over to my little slice of heaven on the internet. I started Tactical Toolbox as a way to cope with loss. I needed a creative outlet to discuss my three passions: firearms, budgeting money, and entrepreneurship. I have always had a passion for helping and inspiring others, and Tactical Toolbox has helped me help others in ways that I never imagined possible.

My goal with Tactical Toolbox is to educate others about firearms, saving money, and using blogging as a way for make a full-time income. This little thing we call the internet has the ability to make all of our dreams become a reality, when utilized properly.

Needless to say, blogging has changed my life, and now I want to share what I’ve learned with you.

ABOUT JONATHAN (Tactical Toolbox)

MY STORY

After 8 years of school, my dream of going to medical school and becoming a surgeon came to an abrupt end. Despite the fact that I performed well in school and studied very hard. It wasn’t enough to get me past the dreaded Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) due to burnout.

After years of studying, I completely burned out, I went through a few months of confusion. During those few months I kept running over everything in my head. I constantly thought about all the time, energy, and student loans that I spent over the years. I sacrificed so many opportunities to have fun and spend time with friends and family. That was time that I could never get back.

During those confused months I took a class called “Social Media Marketing” at my local college. This class opened my eyes to a new world of opportunities. Because of that class I have began this journey to follow my passions and get paid for doing it.

EDUCATION

Currently I have a B.S. in Business Finance. It took me 7 years to finish due to working full-time and volunteering at hospitals. Although, I wasn’t able to fulfill my dream of becoming a surgeon, I wouldn’t change anything about my past. Those 8 years taught me more about myself than some people learn in a lifetime.

HOBBIES

As I mentioned earlier I really enjoy firearms. Learning about them, shooting them, customizing them, and educating others about them. Guns were never supposed to become a hobby. My original intent was to purchase 2 pistols for my wife and I as a means of protection. Don’t get me wrong personal protection is still their main purpose. However, I have made more friends from going to the gun range than I ever had with any other hobby.
