If you borrow $100 today, you will pay interest, plus you will pay back $100 in the future. But under conditions of higher inflation, you will pay back the $100 with cheaper, inflated dollars. Lenders try to take this in to account by charging interest rates high enough to cover inflation, but if inflation rises a lot higher than they plan for, they lose, and the borrower wins. So, if you want to bet on higher inflation, borrow money to buy an income-producing asset like real estate, who's rental or other income covers the loan payments. Your asset will appreciate, and you will pay off the loan with cheap dollars. But you are still gambling. If inflation stays low, your loan could be expensive.
