 Terms of a power series are unbounded outside its convergence disc

Let a power series ${\sum }_{n\ge 0}{a}_n{z}^n$ have finite radius of convergence $R$. If its terms were bounded in complex modulus at a point $z$ with $|z|>R$, say $|a_n{z}^n|\le M$, choose $w$ with $R<|w|<|z|$. ThenThe comparison test for series with a convergent geometric series would give absolute convergence at $w$, contradicting its position outside the convergence disc. Hence the terms are unbounded at every such $z$. The argument also works when $R=0$ and gives a stronger obstruction than the usual term test for divergence.
