Very modest amount of savings, from the third world. Everything seems from fucked to very fucked and just seems like you would tie your interests with that of Capital like private pensions do

not financial advice but it depends on your country. absolutely do not invest in ETFs blindly. market returns in third world countries do not behave similarly to that of first world countries. find a public analysis of comparison of different asset classes in your country and invest in the most profitable safe asset. the safest are usually foreign currencies although they are mostly an inflation hedge not a real investment.

European index fonds suck too, even central Europe. 2008 wiped out like 2/3 of the DAX and it has only been doing well this decade because of the Ukraine war.
