I am not going to present something new today, instead I am going to remind you of the evergreens — the timeless assets which you will never go wrong with.

Real Estates
Real estate is the best investment, both medium and long term! Your home usually holds between 25 and 40 percent of your personal wealth. Location, location, location — good properties are sold offline and the not so good ones it takes them 2 weeks to 3 months. Many of you are probably are waiting prices to go down, but If you are looking to acquire one for yourself I will say every moment is right.
Surprisingly, but this is one of the easiest things to achieve in life. When you find that dream home, don't hesitate to borrow money from the bank and always ask for the longest period. From my practice this is the biggest showstopper for most people, but there is nothing to afraid of, as I said in "Manage Money Better" — Just let the inflation do its job!

Gold
This is one of the best long-term assets to secure your money — if the government starts printing money like crazy, the price of gold goes up and your wealth increases. The average return of gold as an investment is approximately 10% on an annual basis. Even your jewelry counts, you can keep 5-10% of your overall assets value in gold.

Cash
Let's be real — cash is not going away or not, at least in this century. The Swiss franc (CHF) is considered as the safest currency in the world with 0-2% annual inflation and 20% Gold Standard. My recommendation is to keep no more than 1% in cash. A middle-class man can simply follow the plan that I have presented in the "Emergency fund" post.
