Two essential questions to ask: how long do you want to invest it for (how long can you leave it untouched?) and how much risk are you willing to take? |

Consider the Vanguard Prime Money Market Fund with a current compound yield of ~4.65% APR.
https://flagship.vanguard.com/VGApp/hnw/FundsSnapshot?FundId=0030&FundIntExt=INT
Sometimes other institutions will have a higher teaser rate, but Vanguard tends to have the highest yields I've found over the long run. (Vanguard money markets are not FDIC insured, however.)
Article on teaser rates:
http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/banks-advertised-rates-dont-always/story.aspx?guid=%7B0A13B6E2-FFB2-4E2B-BD42-E2D1E01C52E5%7D
ING and HSBC often have rates close to Vanguard, and most of their products are FDIC insured. Bankrate.com provides links to CD's with high interest rates as well as high interest rate banks. You can check these at the following links:
http://home.ingdirect.com/open/open.asp
http://www.us.hsbc.com/1/2/3/personal/savings?code=husa
http://www.bankrate.com/
(If you were investing for a longer period of time and were willing to accept some volatility, you should consider putting some money into no-load low-expense mutual funds. These are not guaranteed, but over the long run produce much higher returns.) |

what are you saving for? depends how long, you could buy a 5 year CD or put it in a money market account |

I would not suggest the stock market, especially right now. Stocks, in my opinion (and the opinion of a lot of other more qualified people) are likely to take a nose dive over the next year or so. I'm just holding mine, not buying anything (though the Visa IPO is tempting!)...
You could invest in a CD or just toss it in a savings account if you only want to collect interest for a year. |

Etrade offers CDs around 5%. And they are FDIC insured. |

I would suggest as others here seeking the help of a finincial advisor to evaluate your risk profile and etc. He/She would be able to then match your needs to the many thousands of investments out there.
Heres an interesting investment for all you americans who would like to leverage your money.
Invest in South Africa - Resource Companies such as Anglo America and BHP Biliton. These companies have dual listings and are the largest global mining companies in the world. There are also other exciting SA investments that are doing realy well due to the growth in emerging markets and the world cup 2010. SA has world class multi national financial institutions and things look great for growth compared to the US market. |

if you don't need to use that 15,000 in the next 12 months i'd start putting them in stocks from feb-apr this year on good stocks for at least 12 months if the economy rebound after housing crisis is over. |
