(1) Best way to increase income for STARTERS is eliminate debt. The less you have to pay the more free income (cash flow) you have.
(2) Incorporate your video company for tax breaks and liability protection (in case the baskets you're teaching people to make start killing people).
(3) Tax-free municipal bonds purchased in the state you live in (assuming you have a state income tax) might be a good bet for part of your portfolio in terms of income. You also want a diversified stock portfolio, perhaps a little exposure to commodities or real estate as well.
(4) Consult an estate planning attorney. Assuming you don't blow all of the money on this stupid (uh, I mean... WELL THOUGHT OUT) business, that money may grow and estate and income tax inssues will become more problematic. Good planning can help reduce that cost, help reduce administrative costs and avoid having your future heirs blow the rest of what you've got. |

You want some thing that is steady and pays good dividends.
some thing with more than 7% apy you can find them if you look hard enough but don't dump it all in to one stock diversify it between about 20 different stocks and sectors also. |

Hmmm... do you want current income? Planning on living off the interest, or investing for capital gains?
Forget the basketweaving, put the principal in a diversified investment strategy (or bond ladder for current income) and move to the beach to live off your fishing and bicycle rental shop. |

If I would be you, I'll probably open CD accounts and live on the interest earned. |

Before my pipedream could even begin I would need the check in the bank first. Since all of my grandparents are gone and there is no source of top dollar money for me. It is what it is, a pipe dream.
Will someone please play the violin for me :( |

If you invest the money and collected 8 % you would yield $80,000 per year ($6,667 per month ) . Over the years, inflation would weaken your spending power.
I would use the $1m as a down payment to buy a $3 million dollar basket weaving business . A business of this type should yield a profit of around $800,00 per year and the yearly payments on a $2m dollar 10 yr loan are around $300,000 .
In this case you would collect around $500,000 per year and after 10 years you could sell the business and retire with a cigar in your mouth just like the banker in the Monopoly game . |

I'd say $500,000 in bond funds and $400,000 in international or foreign stock funds. $100,000 in reserve. No real estate for now, maybe in 4 years. |
