The creditor is the one who's hurt by it. But the rest of my post stands. Ya, as Mike pointed out, I’m turned around about who is hurt by inflation — debtor or creditor.

Emily's salary is based on the dollar and half is converted into pesos each month for us. When we arrived we got 50 pesos to the dollar, now we only get 40. A 20% decrease in our buying power in pesos. The falling US dollar is not as much fun for Emily and I working in the Phillippines.
