Recently I've discovered a couple of venues, Mosaic (which focuses on solar panel installations) and Lending Club (which does direct credit loans, cutting out most bank profits) which seem to offer yields much better than bank accounts or CD's, but without the stomach churning up and down of stocks.
One thing I don't like cutting edge investments is that since we are now 6/7 years out from the last meltdown we don't really know how these investments are going to handle the next crash/recession when it comes. I'm reminded of Warren Buffet's comment that "you only find out who is swimming naked when the tide goes out."
