How does inflation affect saving and investing?
During periods of high inflation, investors generally try to preserve purchasing power by seeking returns that keep up with inflation. Equity (stock) markets generally perform poorly in periods of high inflation with the exception of stocks of companies that benefit from inflation (like commodity companies). The Dow Jones Industrials average was basically flat in the 1970's when inflation was high. Yields on fixed income securities (govt bonds and corporate bonds) usually rise with the corresponding increase in inflation since fixed income investors need a premium over the rate of inflation for a 'real' rate of return. For example, a bond investor that requires a 5% return in a 3% inflation environment will require 7% in a 5% inflation environment. The Investopedia link below has a basic article on this topic.
What is likely to happen to yield to maturity on bonds in the marketplace if inflationary expectations increase?

Is belly inflation a sin?
It depends on your religion and circumstances. If you believe that masturbation is a sin, then belly inflation is also by definition sinful, since its primary purpose is to achieve erotic pleasure apart from the normal sexual union of a husband and wife. But besides that, the insertion of air, water, or other materials into the rectum by non medical professionals is extremely dangerous. Regular practice of belly inflation can severely damage the interior lining of the intestines, leading to illnesses several years down the road that often require surgical intervention. There is also a danger of rupturing the intestines during inflation, which can cause death. If you are a practitioner of belly inflation, I strongly encourage you to stop the practice immediately and seek medical attention to assess any internal injuries you may have already sustained. Damage is usually reversible with treatment. There are much safer alternatives for those with inflation fetishes, such as wearable inflation suits. Many religions are okay with these other options. For example, according to Catholic teaching, to the best of my knowledge, such items can be incorporated into the love lives of married couples as long as they ultimately lead to natural sexual union between the spouses. There is no reason to feel like a freak or an outcast because of your inflation fetish. In fact, most people have fetishes of some kind or another that they feel others would find strange, so your partner will most likely understand where you're coming from should you choose to discuss it with him or her. Keeping your fetish secret can lead to feelings of guilt, isolation, and increase your chances of partaking in risky behavior such as belly inflation.
Is borrowing is equal to fiscal deficit?
Normally it should be. Once deficit; from where you are going to finance it? According to me there are three ways to overcome fiscal deficit 1) Theft to full-fill your requirement 2) Print the currency you require and 3) Borrow the funds for financing. The first part cannot be executed by any of the Govt., because Govt never steals. The second part will necessarily increase inflation (Too much of money will fetch less of goods) and Hence the third option is the best option, as financing can always be done by keeping mortgage equivalent to the borrowings. In this case also if the financing is not backed by the sufficient security, inflation is bound to rise.
