I'm reading through Spivak Ch.22 (Infinite Sequences) right now. He mentioned in the written portion that it's often not a trivial matter to determine the boundedness of sequences. With that in mind, he gave us a sequence to chew on before we learn more about boundedness. That sequence is:

$$1, 1+\frac{1}{2}, 1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}, 1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}, . . .$$

I know that a sequence is bounded above if there is a number $M$ such that $a_n\leq M$ for all $n$. Any hints here?
