What if your most remarkable transformation came not from strategy or success but faith, love, and a will to start over?
All of a Sudden: The Life of an Entrepreneur has the correct answer to this crucial question. A powerful, emotionally rich, and deeply human memoir- an unforgettable journey through heartbreak, hardship, hustle, and happy hope.
Born the eleventh of thirteen children in war-torn Vietnam, Richard Du's childhood tasted tragedy; he faced poverty and felt the gravity of loss. From surviving barefoot in the bomb-laced fields of a remote village to arriving in Los Angeles at age eleven without a word of English or a day of schooling, Richard's story begins where most would give up. But this isn't a fractured saga of survival—it's one of unstoppable evolution.
With persistent grit, constant faith as one of Jehovah's Witnesses, and a heart full of love, Richard created his path from an illiterate immigrant to a real estate CEO managing billions in transactions. But All of a Sudden isn't just a business story either—it's a love story. At its core is Richard's breathtaking romance with Judy, the woman who believed in him. A chance encounter at a New York engagement party to a cross-country move confronting family expectations, their love walked with humor, honesty, and divine timing. Their marriage is a living example of what it means to build a legacy of love.
This book is also about risk—emotional, financial, and spiritual chances. Richard's journey: a series of life-altering leaps—from surviving on food stamps in Los Angeles to starting over in New York City, from faxing out resumes with broken English to closing over $10 billion in real estate transactions. It's all about growing pains, entrepreneurial tenacity, and the inaudible courage it takes to reinvent yourself over and over again. Warmth, wisdom, and a touch of humor, Du's voice is humble yet determined, inspiring yet relatable—a rare combination in today's business memoirs.
