mreit are pretty safe at the moment (as long as interest rate not going up which Fed promise till the end of 2014). stuff like ARR, CIM, etc easily give you 15% a year. ex-date for the CIM quarterly dividend is coming soon, i suggest u to get some quick. ARR gives u month div though.

Not saying that this is an advise, or even a suggestion, but this is what I, for one, would do.

Scour the market for relatively beat up stocks with relatively high yield dividends (ETFs if I don't want the associated risks with single stock)
Buy said stock, or ETF, with half of my cash (save the other half to act)
Sell cover calls on said stock or ETF. pick a price where I'll make some money, but not get called.
Even if I just make 1% a month, that's 12% a year.
Rinse, repeat every month.
...
Profits.


Yeah, that's what I would do... ;)
