A 100% risk free investment is a Fixed Annuity. It is an account with an insurance company that is guaranteed not to fall below a set interest rate. You can receive a fixed income amount from this investment for the rest of your life. Going directly through an Insurance company verses a bank or broker will get you a better interest rate typically. No middle man. Let me know if you need the name of a reputable insurance company that offers over 6% return

Never buy an annuity.
CD is the only fixed income/fixed return investment that won't get eaten up by fees (like an annuity).

For a U.S. investor, U.S treasury securities are as risk free as they come. Mutual funds can actually carry alot of risk let alone all the fees they charge. Certificates of Deposit are also almost risk free and are relatively easy to invest in. Right now you could earn about 5%. Lastly, to hedge against inflation which is a risk inherent in treasury securities you could purchase T.I.P.S which are treasury inflation protected securities.

a risk-free rate simply does not exist. however, a 3 month treasury bill is the proxy for a risk free investment. there is still some risk involved with the t-bill but it is very minimal. this is the lowest risk you can do.
Good point on the TIPS.
