I Will Teach You to Manage Money. A Step-by-Step Guide to Financial Independence

Personal money often doesn’t come together into a coherent picture: income, savings, and investments live separately from one another. Over time, this leads to incorrect decisions and increases anxiety. Igor Shimko suggests looking at financial management as a system built on life goals and the real constraints of a person. The author explains that wealth is created not just by financial tools: experience and competencies also matter, as do career decisions and one’s circle of social connections. That’s why the book is structured as a clear path from disorder to structure. Using practical examples, it breaks down the key components of personal finance—from an emergency fund and dealing with debt to the stock market and real estate.

From the book you will learn:
– why investments don’t deliver results without clear goals and a well-thought-out plan;
– what types of capital form stable well-being;
– how a professional path and career choices are reflected in money;
– how to build a reliable financial system without chasing maximum returns.
