What and where can I get a security that can pay me 7 to 10% a year?
Something that does not lose its principal like a bond sometimes, just something that makes 7 to 10 percent a year.

Thank You

There are a lot of mutual funds that have in the past generate those returns. There is no guarantee that they will in the future but a pretty good possibility, especially if you are well diversified. PENNX has a 20+ year record averaging 13%. GAM has a 30+ record of even higher returns. SWZ which is a fund investing in Swiss companies is also in that range. That one will protect you from the collapsing dollar. There are many others also.

I am mortgage broker from Edmonton, Alberta and like most successful brokers have found a niche market. My particular target is bad credit and business for self with non provable income. One of the private lenders that I use will pay investors 12% guaranteed per year on all money deposited. If you would like to have any information on this you can contact me at

Maybe what you should look at is a nice dividend paying equity?
I think if you wait for PCU ( Southern Copper) to dip about $1.50,buy in at about $71.00 ... you'll be getting a 10% dividend quarterly no matter what happens to the share price....and it could very well go way up ( some parts of the world are still building like crazy).....so besides your dividend your capital could increase.
If that sounds too scary...look into the REIT sector...commercial/income your best bet.

Hmm. A risk-free investment that pays 7-10 percent a year is a TALL order. Risk=Return is a basic tenet of finance.

I am a big fan of Echange Traded Funds. (ETF)
It is a way to get a lot of diversity for small investments.

Bonds don't really lose principal in the long term and are generally safter than stocks.

There is no real short answer and be wary of anyone who recommends anything too specific.

Best bet is to simply do your homework, as there is no easy answer. Yahoo finance is an EXCELLENT resource that I swear by to learn about such things.

I dont know anything totally secure that will pay you that amount but you might consider investing in a good stock that pays dividends since they are only taxed at 15%. I might suggest something like ED, or ACAS, etc.

but research for yourself before you buy!

There are plenty of non-junk bonds that yield 7%+. Hold them to maturity and they do not lose principal. If you really need a "guarantee of principal" check annunities from an insurance company. Just make sure the yield is not partly a return of principal. Also check to see if the insurance company does business in New York State. They have the toughest regulations in the country so only the strongest insurance companies due business there.

There are many companies offering way more than that without risk.

If you need details let me know.
