Don't debtors stand to gain from higher inflation? If we're expecting very high inflation wouldn't it be satisfy the debtor because the inflation pays of their loan?

I have a dislike of debt. I'm good for a decent loan from the bank if I wanted. Back in October last year when I decided to buy silver I seriously considered borrowing to buy. But in the end I just was not going to borrow to invest. I spent what I had, and knew I could afford to lose. I've missed out on a bunch of opportunities because of my dislike of debt. But on the flip side I sleep very well.
