Your best bet for a really good return would be to invest in cemeteries and railroads

$200K can buy a business and such that will bring you an income, but it means having to work it, and by the phrasing of your question, I guess you have no interest in that.

You can invest the money on a couple family homes and lease them out, but you are dependent upon someone paying their rents on time.

There are several mutual funds that are available with good returns, around 10-12%, which would be $20-24K a year, however - you would have to leave the money in there a year before getting the first interest back, and there will be taxes on that.

The below strategy gives you monthly income in the form of dividends while minimizing risk...

Dogs of the Dow Dividend Strategy

1. Compile list of top 10 yielding Dow Jones Index stocks.
2. Narrow list down to the 5 lowest priced of the 10.
3. Narrow further to choose the 4 highest priced stocks of the previous 5.

You will be left with 4 stocks that are stalwarts, this manifesting itself in the simple fact they trade on the Dow Jones. They are the highest dividend payers of the index, and tend to be companies facing some difficulties, but are very unlikely to lose their value.

On the last trading day of the year, you sell your losers, deduct losses from your taxes, and replace the losers from a new list of 'dogs'. Currently following this strategy, the stocks would be GE, VZ, T, and MRK.

How much do you need? For how long? If you need this to last indefinately, most financial advisors would tell you not to withdraw more than 3 or 4% each year. That means you should be able to enjoy between $500 and $667 per month. Taking any more than that will greatly increase the chances of you outliving your money.

Placing the money in a diversified portfolio will give you the best and safest returns for your money while still enjoying some growth. If you are retiring and need safety, be carful not to overdue it. Even in retirement, you need a chunk of your money in good growth stocks to help combat inflation.

Talk to a financial advisor or visit any of the fund family websites such as fidelity.com.

Hope that helps,

Rick

You have two choices:

1) A passive investment, such as stocks and bonds, in which you can sit back and watch your investment grow slowly -- very slowly -- or provide you with a small income and not grow at all.

2) An active investment in which you invest in yourself -- in a business or entrepreneurial pursuit in which your money will multiply itself over and over again, and an investment which YOU control.

The best way to save your money is by diversity. Which means using the three different forms of investment: savings accounts, stocks, and bonds. Do not 'put all your eggs in one basket', as the saying goes. So don't shove all your money into a single stock, or let it sit in a savings account. Divesify your savings.

I think a money market savings account would be best but maybe there is something better. That gets you about 5% a month which is, 10k a month in money
