How to protect savings from inflation?

Answer

Inflation devalues money. Protection:

Deposits with interest above inflation (rare).
Inflation-linked government bonds (indexed to inflation).
Stocks (historically outperform inflation in the long run).
Real estate (rental income + appreciation).
Currency diversification. Keeping cash under the mattress is the worst option.
