So why is single, no family and alone better?

It's just a (an?) hypothesis of managing resources, not that I've much experience in such matters. I prefer not to think of people in terms of superiority.

Why on earth would being married be a benefit?

Perhaps they would be less likely to transfer on account of a competitor's proposal or quit unexpectedly due to the logistics involved? Or perceived as more reliable in general?

Sorry this calamity has befallen your household, miss jelly. A friend of mine once stated he had nearly died of some disease related to bed bugs as a teenager, and it's quite the epidemic over in the usa.

Tread carefully, the cynic in me is warning she's intending to leave you with the bill, mayhap not just one. Sounds like you're in a bit of a tight spot to begin with, due to recent relocation and all.

How much furniture is it anyway? (although seems disposal isn't normally recommended.) Would it be roughly as costly to perform the extermination directly on the belongings? (ie on her own, since she'd neglected to mention.)

On another note, kinda curious what "doing some weird stuff" means...

How long is the trip, alex? Sounds somewhat hand to mouth, no offence.

I'm unfamiliar with "biscuits and gravy" - I take it they're different from cookies? And that he seldom frequents the kitchen?

Corrected a bug I had been stuck with many hours yesterday.
Tried to look up at the sky and couldn't stop constant eye spasms.

How do you get by with just one each? Or do you take turns, perchance?

Not in the slightest.
Stop loss is roughly the opposite, leaving a position ahead of any time plans due to a significant drop in price from purchase point, and is self imposed. Its very existence is testament to the uncertainty of investment - if I recall correctly, the best traders don't reach 70% or 80% success in their guesses, and that's a measure for having striked out, tool to keep losses from growing boundlessly (& overall balance positive).
Target price is just one's future selling point, estimation for where it should reach. No guarantee of whether or when it would reach that.

As soon as you start spotting these red flags, you have to flip your perspective - assume anything you were told is a lie, and ask yourself what reason is there to trust this entity.

He's not family, he's not a childhood friend, he doesn't reside in the same city (or country), assume he isn't bound by any contract, his hand is in your pocket and he's making obscure threats.
Even if he had been giving perfectly valid sounding explanations, the fact that he lacks any measure of accountability towards you places the risk factor nigh 100%.
The only way to reduce it is by not delaying legal proceedings further.

Sherlock's statement is correct - even at a loss, one may sell bonds at any time if there's a buyer for the price. I don't see a way of interpreting "Locked" as anything more concrete than a figure of speech.

However, let's take a step back from the technicalities.
He's basically speaking a foreign language and you're only picking up every 5th word or so.
With this sort of info loss, guesses may vary in any number of ways, only a few of them related to the whole (and underlying) truth.

I'd say, if it's just his money, you've no obligation to the matter and may simply "frown and nod".
If you're involved (which is a bad idea) or sufficient intrigued, you'd either need to acquire a rather wide background to know which keywords to notice, request a plain explanation (which may or may not be provided), or quote verbatim.

Definitely oughtn't commit to what you don't fully comprehend, if that's the general intention (just so we're clear on that point).

In that case nay, likely isn't what I mentioned; guess it's the supposition that such commodities have an intrinsic value & limited physical supply, thus always rising in the long term.
These brief articles should provide the gist of it:

I am by no means an expert (only a few courses & lessons years ago), but I think this, if not some form of trickery (that depends on the person with whom you deal), would be bonds or debentures (possibly dividend).

When you acquire those, you get a percentage of your investment, the interest, every fixed number of months, and in the end of a term (years) the capital. A loan to a company or state, basically. These are as solid as the company behind their issuing - some might pay the interest and default on the capital (ie go bankrupt prior to it).
As for the locking mechanism - price might go up or down (likely latter in your case), depending on how investors view the safety of regaining their capital, discouraging an early sale, but as long as this defaulting doesn't occur, you gain the exact sum of interest + capital for sticking it out.

I think you should get the details, at least on the name(s) and type of investment. Possibly, being kept in the dark is more cause for concern than reality.
