The best or safest? The best gains come with the most risk ie the stock market, mutual funds, ETF's. Safe gains associate with banks, credit unions, and bonds.

If you go the risky route, find a broker. With 3 million, I'd suggest finding a very good one, forgoing online brokers. If you go the safe route, just dump your money, sit back, and expect lower gains, but know those gains will always increase year-year.
Good luck!

Well, you could put it all in the CDs or bonds and "skim" off the interest every time one of them matures. Or, a little bit riskier way to do it but one that will be more a hedge against inflation, would be to invest in high-yielding stocks -- i.e., stocks, preferably in solid companies like, KO, T, Mighty MO, P&G -- that pay good dividends and whose stock prices are not likely to take a downward spiral. There are a number of ways of looking at this, in terms of tax consequences and inflation, etc. If you decide to consult a financial adviser (which may very well be a good idea given the size of your investment), be sure to read up on financial advisers and get one who is certified, not just a salesperson.

I would not invest that amount of money in any one place.
In your base question you say you seek interest.
Interest is gotten from debt instruments like bonds and bank accounts.
However in the explaination part of your question you speak about gain.
Gain is obtained from investment growth and capital appreciation.
Investment growth is obtained from equities.
You ask what debt instruments to invest in yet you seek growth.
You need the assistance of several investment professionals.
If you would like to talk more I would be more than happy to listen.
I would like to learn more about you and what it is you are trying to accomplish.

You can try www.prosper.com, it's new peer to peer lending location. I've seen rates as high as 25% on there, so a potential $750k a year but risk may be a bit higher.

Sorry - what I said before was rubbish so I'm editing it.

I would use Prosper (http://www.prosper.com/join/Moon111 ) they allow you to lend money to other people easily and you can easily expect 9-13% return for people with AA-A credit!

Government bonds are pretty stable and they have high returns

I'm not sure if you are speaking of a bank to put your money so it will earn the most interest- if so Smith & Barney is a great choice (I have used them for years and it's based out of NY- www.smithbarney.com).
If you are asking what stocks to invest in, go with an established company such as Johnson & Johnson and others like that because you know they will not plummet; however, these stocks are best to leave your money in for long term and you will gain the most that way. You can ask your financial advisor for some advice on what stocks to invest in. Also, if you put some of the money into a Smith & Barney account- they will help you pick out the right stocks to invest in.

First you need to consider your term of investment, then you need to consider your attitude to investment. Remember high risk equals high rewards.

Generally speaking government short term treasury bills are considered the safest (depends on the country though - investors are not exactly flocking to Zimbawe)

Equity ownership and unsecured lending are considered the higher risk form of 'investment'

Note that when things become leveraged (high borrowing position) or if the security being invested in are 'relative' securities (such as futures or options) then the risk are higher still.

Municipal bonds are very safe investments that generate tax-advantaged interest. Talk to several financial advisors before you decide which broker to use. UBS, Morgan Stanley, Smith Barney, Merill Lynch, Fidelity Investments, Charles Schwab, Wachovia Securities are all reputable firms that could help you.
