Sangwoo Kim says:

At 1:26 I don't quite understand the biggest drawback, is he saying that while Alison has to wait without receiving payments and paying income taxes, other companies that give out bonds attached with coupons are reinvesting their interest to get bigger interest? So she's is losing out? Is that what the speaker means?

Awesome explanation!

Nickuncle says:

Well I must say I didn't ever realize that you pay income tax on the interest that accrues on the bond….Seems very strange.
