There is no way that house prices will be going up during the next depression.

Prices are mostly determined by rental yield.

That means that when unemployment goes up to 10%+, rents will start to come back down to Centrelink levels.

House prices will follow according.

Especially, when all those people that borrowed too much, lose their job, and try to sell all at the same time.

Immigrants won't be coming here to mop up the surplus supply, because they will have their own domestic troubles.

Gold and silver will probably protect you from adverse currency movements.

Interest in cryptocurrencies will disappear, because they are tech-led, and tech stocks will be racing to the bottom.

All IMO, of course.
