Ask HN: How do you prepare for inflation, if there will be such?

It seems like governments are printing money like crazy (current example from front page: https://asia.nikkei.com/Economy/Japan-to-subsidize-100-of-salaries-at-small-companies).

I'm not an economist, but in my simple understanding and experience of growing during xUSSR fall with crazy inflation, I want to ask HN: how do you prepare for inflation risks?

I don't own a house, alas. I have my cash stash that will help me to go through rainy days for a 1-1.5 years, (based on current spending level), if there will be any.

I know that I'm more on risk-averse side, and with recent first baby in the family, I can't help but think what may happen to our family savings.
