This will lead to a world-wide economic depression. I've finally made around 23k savings over the past ~3 years (yes, that's the result of working in Germany as a programmer with a median salary while having minimal to moderate expenses).

All of that is going to become toilet paper eventually. I need to convert it before it loses its value. Something I can touch, carry around and sell without losing too much value in the process. Or Bitcoin maybe... I don't know.

What? Why? Precious metals are an excellent way to fight inflation. The gov't can print all the trillions it wants to, but they can't create a single gram of gold out of thin air.
