Just get a three month or a six month CD until you really figure out what to do. Do not be afraid to ask for a higher rate from a bank that is not publishing quotes on line.

IRA OR A CD

i would suggest going to online banking, sites like ING E-TRADE WACHOVIA all give very high interest rates, plus i would first get your financial affairs in order, because no matter the interest rates ur getting, the interest they charge is higher

You're so risk adverse that you don't trust bonds? Sounds like you want a risk free asset that gets a nice return; they don't exist. Government bonds are essentially risk free, but the return is low. You could always put your money in a mmkt or savings account and really miss out on something good. You should be investing in the market. Buy low and sell high. You have a good opportunity to get some discounted equities, but it doesn't sound like you are looking for that. Let me guess, you were one of the people who ran from the market when it dipped into the 8000's and haven't been back since. If you had just bought shares of the DJIA, you could have made 50% if you had sold off when it came back down to 12,000's from 14,000's.

You should be invested in T-Bills/Bonds/Notes at the very least. Risk free with a minimal return. You could always try a new concept and DIVERSIFY your money in to stocks and bonds to get a better return. You'll shield your investment that way. If that is too much, bury your money in the back yard and make a treasure map. You won't get any interest on your money, but it sounds like that would be fine with you.

Great for you. DON'T buy dump trucks!!!

Invest in property and live off the rent. The only risk you have is someone doesn't pay but you still keep your investment no matter what.

I would pay off ALL debts that I had (esp. credit cards and car loans, then cut up all credit cards and keep the car I have.)
I would then put about $10,000 dollars into a money market for emergencies. The remainder I would invest in a couple of small rental properties and mutual funds.
On the mutual funds I would invest so much in each one of the following: Large Growth Fund, International Growth Fund, and Aggressive Growth. NOW is the time to buy not only real estate, but mutual funds as well.

Find a bank with a really good interest rate. you'll make moer that way. but remember, if you have any debt, its worth your while to pay it off instead, because you'll often end up paying more interest than you are getting it.

Put it in a RothIRA. That's all I can think of. Any type of high-interest bearing account would be good.

First i suggest paying off your revolving debt(credit cards, private loans, ect.)
That will allow you to clear yourself from monthly expenses bringing you in new income if you work.
With 25% of the rest, I suggest you buy some land in emerging countries. This is 20 year holds so its very long term.
the next 25% put a down payment for a 2-4 unit apartment building, rent is going to skyrocket in the coming years.
the next 50% i say keep it in CD's, and continue to work, while reasearching more on investments.
With the mentality of not trusting the stock market or bonds, I think you dont understand them that well.

Remember this my friend, the bigger the risk the bigger the reward.

But mostly with what I said, you can also invest in a business, subway is the worlds top franchise according to Entrepreneur.com, i believe it was $95k start-up.

Fixed income investments are not really generating that much money right now.
