Tim English’s birthday present to himself was handing in his resignation letter
It seemed that Tim English had it all: a successful career as a Bay Street lawyer, a $250,000 salary, and a promotion to the executive ranks.

Eventually, he opened up a small chocolate shop in Toronto's west end and has never looked back since.
