and my main question here is how can i invest my money
i know that inflation is a killer right now and i have to invest my income to have good life in next years for me and my family

I think it depends on how much time you have to control your investments. You also need to understand the difference between investing and trading. Investing is buying something and holding it long term in the hope in will increase in value. Trading is buying and selling in quick succession which is time consuming and not easy to learn.
Either way you’re opening yourself up to losing money as well as gaining money. If you’re just looking for long term and safe investing I would suggest speaking to your bank.
If you want to invest in something ‘real’ I would suggest maybe looking into buying gold and keeping it in a safe at home or in the bank.

Hello Vasil!
I’m happy to see you around! I am also happy to see that you are not going to trade crypto!
I suggest you think of stocks, but you need to have good basic knowledge.
You can buy some of them and easily keep them for a long time without actually worrying about the small changes in the price.
At the end, it is 100% up to you, but consider some good stocks with fundamental analysis.
Maybe JNJ 
Best Luck/

I personally prefer to trade gold and believe it to be a good choice.
I think it’s worth exploring other investment instruments such as bonds, mutual funds, index funds, or exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Besides other sources of investment, Forex can be a good investment for you too if you trade here by maintaining trading rules and regulations.
In terms of long term buy and hold investments, my personal opinion is that there is hardly a better choice than all market ETFs. They are already diversified, they are cheap, you dont have to look after them, just buy and forget. You dont have to have lots of different positions to manage in your account. just one or two.
I would consider picking one or two specific stocks with a low % in the overall portfolio, because i really like the companies. Mercedes for example. But it would be more because i want to be a part of it, than that i want a big ROI.

Buying gold when it’s on its way down from an all time high isn’t good advice. Look at the historical chart and compare where gold is with where it was after the 2008 crisis. Once markets settle and the big boys are back in risk on mode, you’re going to lose 33% of the value on gold.
A very small short trade on XAUUSD would give a very big return over the next couple of years and have positive swap to add as a bonus. But there’s still risk from high inflation, so a big position wouldn’t be advised to hold, especially when the last 2 weeks have had big drops and a retracement is on the cards

Yes vasil.
Johnson & Johnson (J&J) is a leading American healthcare company and right now in the stocksmarket everyone is eager to buy health stocks, JNJ is a good one I guess.
Forex can be a good investment as long as a trader has sufficient trading knowledge. Besides forex, crypto can be traded with long-term vision.
The Tech sector is doing really well now due to the AI & Chat GPT explosion. I have added a Tech ETF (HTA.TO) to my investment portfolio. It pays great dividends as well.
Just don’t put all your eggs in one basket, diversify in case one sector has a bad year (like tech is now recovering from).
