I should have worded that better - by "hold debt" I mean people who are paying the debts, especially things like fixed rate mortgages.

If you borrowed $500k to buy your house at 3% and we hit 10% inflation, you look like a financial wizard pretty fast.

If you bought non-TIPS bonds during that time to finance your retirement, you may end up nearly destitute.
