The better way to invest is in mutual funds, especially one that has been around a long time and established. I use Lord Abbett (that is the family) Affiliated Fund. It has been around since about 1940 I think. That way professional investors are watching out for the investment. Overall, the return is supposed to be that you double your initial investment about every 7 years. So the $75000 in the next 7 years will become $150000, and that will in turn double over the following 7 years. This is the way us little people make the big bucks.

U.S. Treasury Securities (Bonds, Bills, Notes,etc). You can invest in these through a bank, a stock broker, or online. (treasury securities.com) I think the 10 year bond is paying approx 5.15% as of July 3. The bank and the broker will probably charge you a commission fee. The Daily Treasury yield Curve Rates have been kind of goofy lately. The 6 month bond has a yield of 5.31%

NOTHING is risk free. Not even US savings bonds. They call these risk free, because they are the closest you can get to risk free. I have a Paypal account that is a money market account. It's earning 4.82%, but Internet security would be the biggest risk.

I know a company that currently offers 9.60%
You can drop me a line if you need more detailed free information.
However, I suggest you to invest in ETFs and you will get way more than 9.60% and you can limit your losses to 10%
Can you handle a $7,500.00 USD loss?

dump 30% of that in to LMT - Lockheed Martin. Wait for 12 months, watch it soar. This company kicks butt, and will continue to.

'Risk-Free'???
You earn 4.11% and tax rate on gains is 15%
4.11%x15%=3.49% net yield
The inflation rate is 3.5%, you are losing money on your money, so its not 'risk-free' is it? A fine example of the 'New Economy math'.
some people are not very savvy.
