You will still get the interest and money back from lower rate bounds. They only drop in value if you need to sell them before they mature.

Right, the example I was attempting to give was a scenario where a professional investor may legitimately need to have a quick windfall from am investment. They couldn't sell their bonds that are currently worth less than they paid for them so the investor may legitimately need another investment to double their money.
