Coping with language barrier?
Learn the language!
(The Goethe Institute KL offers courses!)
Since a large majority of Germans speak passable English, this barrier isn't very high. I know many foreigners living here for years without German lanuage skills - it is possible, but your social life and general options will be limited.

Investment opportunities?
Start doing research about which industries and companies you want to invest in, then buy their shares (if listed) or bonds (if any) or contact the owners (many German SMEs are family-owned) about other ways to invest. This is no different from other countries!
