stocks, stocks and stocks. if you want something safe, buy some index. maybe something form a sector you understand a bit about or just go with s&p500, etc.... there is nothing safer than that.

personally i pick my own stocks. so far i am +35% since december and i was at +60% recently. it fluctuates but i am a long term investor so i just chill and don't sweat about it.

in the end it depends on how much work you are willing to "invest". you can flip alcohol or houses or daytrade but it all requires time and effort and it just becomes a job. hence i advocate for long term investing.
