Common Concern for consumers in Sino-American Economics

How much is the currency worth after 2,3,5 or 10 years when inflation is the factor to be considered by all consumers. The value of today's dollar or Yuan will be decreasing when inflation is expected during the course of time. What would be the hedge against inflation? Real Estate or Stocks? But hey are down as well. What about antiques or hard coins? Food for thoughts for all investors to mull over for financial protection in the days to come. My recommendation is the investment in human capital i.e. a marketable skill that can generate income anywhere when such skill is in demand. Nobody would impugn such market demand in real life.
