Sure, if you have some money to start with. If you're at the lower rungs of the ladder, inflation hurts you even worse.

Right now, at least in the United States, if you belong to, IIRC, the bottom 75% of the population by net worth, then you are in fact a net debtor, and inflation helps you more than it hurts.
