Consider the Vanguard Prime Money Market Fund with a current compound yield of ~5% APR.

If you are in a high tax bracket you may prefer their tax exempt money market funds:

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. You can check these at the following links:

(If you are investing for a long period of time and are willing to accept some risk, 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.)

I know this isnt the answer you are looking for but if we knew good investments without risk we would be rich!

All 'investments' have some level of risk. It just depends on how much risk you are willing to accept and feel comfortable with. Look for investments that guarantee a certain rate of return.

Right now, some CDs (Certificates of deposit) at banks, savings & loans, and credit unions are returning 5+%. If you don't want to tie your money up too long - the institution has to have it long enough to make a profit on it - then, a CD might be a good place to park some money.

General rule of thumb: the longer you allow an institution to use your money, the greater the guaranteed return.

Those investments that do not guarantee a return are only for those that are willing to risk the possibility that they may lose principal - the amount of money that they invested in the first place. Higher returns than guaranteed investments are possible, but the risk of loss is higher, too.

Remember that virtually all investments are subject to either capital gains tax or income tax. The after-tax (net) return is the one to calculate. Tax-deferred investments don't get taxed until you take the money out. Early withdrawals could result in serious fees or penalties as well as taxes.

If you want to invest for a return, first, you have to believe that all investment has risk attached to it otherwise one day you will be devastedly disappointed. The only way to mitigate the risk is to spread the risks by diversification.

Investing in a Fund. Its less risky than stocks.

A fire proof box or safe deposit box will do.

Seriously, every investment involves risk. Yes, even CD/Savings/Money Market investments involve risk. The risk with them is the loss of value risk due to lack of a solid return. Inflation tends to eat up all or most gains in "secure" investment vehicles. If you are totally against or just can't invest in a vehicle with the potential for any loss whatsoever, why not invest in yourself instead? Can you think of anyone else that will help to insure your success that is better qualified than you? Maybe take a course or two on investing and learn more about your choices. Get a subscription to magazines on investing. Further your education by maybe attending a community class on investing etc.

At any rate, I hope that some of this info has helped and wish you luck!

Low risk = low rewards.
Invest in yourself.
Find something you're interested in and take an investment course. There is ALWAYS money to be made in Real Estate.
You must learn how to buy right.

Good luck.
