There are mutual funds that distribute dividends monthly. That would be the easiest and most straight forward method. All money market funds operate this way. Those would be the safest but perhaps least productive options. Most equity mutual funds do not pay dividends monthly. Many debt mutual funds do pay monthly.
Here are a few example of some closed end funds that do.
FHI pays 0.16 monthly and sells for $15.41 a share about. Now be aware. This fund has mortgage paper in its portfolio and is very risky. But with a return of 12.5% some risk might be expected. A month ago the return was not nearly so great.
HYF pays 0.04 monthly and sells for $4.25 a share about. This fund may not have any mortage paper but it does have a lot of low rated paper. The return is 11.3% Again a month ago the return was not nearly so great.
Now here is one that might pick your interest just a tad more. It does not invest in debt obligations. Instead it invests in equities and writes options against them to generate income. IGD pays 0.156 monthly and sells for about $19.61 a share for a return of 9.5%. Of course this fund is subject to capital loss in a downturn in equity values, which I might add we are currently undergoing.
Going down the returns ladder some more.
DPD pays 0.15 monthly and sell for 19.83. This is of the same nature as IGD, but buys only Dow Industrial stocks.
Do you get the idea? |

Look at http://www.dividenddetective.com
Set up an account at E-trade, Fidelity...invest in a dividend paying stock ( many are monthly!) ...then you can withdraw that much from your account every month and never touch the initial investment...( which may also rise in value...or not )
Take HTE..( Harvest Energy Trust)...right now $ 20,000. would buy you about 790 shares ... every month you get 38 cents per share as a dividend....$ 300. per month
It doesn't sound like a lot, but its $ 3600. per year on a $ 20,000. investment...close to 18% !!!
Ooops! Canadian taxes apply..brings your yearly take down to $ 3160....or 15.8%...still beats anything at the bank.
( numbers all rounded off...actually you could get 794 shares... so, everything would be a tiny bit higher) |

1) You can buy bonds.
2) You can buy stocks that pay dividends (note that most companies pay dividends quarterly, but a few do pay by the month.)
3) You can sell options on stock you already own.
An option is an agreement to sell a set number of shares of stock to another person at a set price before a certain date. For example say you own 100 shares of Apple (which trades at 128.31 at the moment). You can currently sell a contract to someone else that will give that person the right to buy your stock at a price of $130/share between now and Sept 21 for $490. If the stock goes to $130 or higher you make $490 plus $169 (the difference between the stock's current price and $130/share). If it doesn't go to $130 or higher you keep the $490 and can turn right around and sell another contract. This is an easy way to generate steady income off of a stock position that doesn't pay a dividend.
Note that you should be very well versed in how stocks and options work before you try it though. |

That is a loaded question with many answers. The very safest and most secure investments will pay a small interest (perhaps below inflation) Higher returns are available with more risk. You want to find a balance between safe and a decent return.
If you can lock up the money for a long period of time, you have many more options. |

Assuming you have a job and do not need the maximum possible income short term, the choice is clear. Invest it in two or three income type mutual funds.
The income will be about 3.5% which after tax is not very much below what you will get from bank deposits. But while bank deposits will be progressively eaten away by inflation the income from the MF will keep growing every year giving you an increasing standard of living. |

Monthly is a short-term idea at approximately 4 weeks. A 3-month T-Bill doesn't qualify and that pays 4.60%.
For just 4 weeks I would look for momentum in the stock market in the area of both banks and oil. |
