Hello, everyone!

Finally with the new year I have decided to take an important step and start saving a portion of my company's profits each month in another account, so as to keep them in a "piggy bank" and invest them.

But now I have a problem.

My intention was to leave the money in cash and, when I'll have some free time, start studying investments seriously.

But everyone has seen that inflation is very high these days. I don't want to park my money only to see its value go down every month. If I start investing a year from now I risk burning a lot of money.

SO...

What is a brain-zero investment to maintain the value of money?

The choice that makes the most sense to me at the moment is something like a index funds that follow the S&P 500, or precious metals such as gold. In this way I can start to become familiar with these instruments without risking much.

Then, when money becomes more, I can diversify by choosing other investments .

Does anyone have better advice or does it make sense?
