This is an excellent point, thank you for sharing. The ability to capitalize on the fiat debasement requires a store of higher valuation fiat, best case, in the amount of the loan at the time of acquisition or prior. This is contrary to the typical use case of mortgages. For most people, if they had the necessary funds available, they would simply purchase the house. Earning debased currency concurrent to paying debasing debt gives no distinct fiscal advantage, no?

If you keep your wealth in a debasing currency, your advantage would be how well you can negotiate a raise, raise your prices, or somehow earn on par or better than inflation.

If you store your wealth in a currency like the dollar or better, Bitcoin, then the tide turns even further in your favor.

I did the conversion from Lira to dollars but it would be even more attractive looking at the try/BTC chart
