That's way to generic of a question...I would put more thought into it if you would like to get worthwhile responses.

Right now, invest in Forever stamps. Once the rate hike hits on May 12th, you'll have made 2.38% on your money. Annualized, that's a 28.56% return.

Some blue chip stocks have a dividend higher than money market funds. A secure dividend could reduce downside risk.

Once I sell the stamps the following day, I'll have an instant profit of $1220! It shouldn't be too hard to unload 122,000 stamps, right?

No no... Spend it, then complain and have the government bail you out.

Would it be Funds, bonds or any type of business ?I don't mean to be insulting, but if you have to ask, then you should probably keep your money in either an FDIC-insured bank account that allows you to withdraw the money at almost any time with no penalty (money market bank accounts, shorter-term CDs, savings accounts) or in a money market mutual fund (note: money market mutual funds are not the same as bank money market accounts) that charges no more than 0.4% a year in expenses.
A business is usually among the most risky investments you can make, and most are gone within the first five years. Don't invest in a business without first working in it for a few years.
United States Savings bonds are good because they're safe, tax deferred, and easy to redeem, although I-bonds (inflation protected Savings bonds) charge a 10% penalty during the first five years of ownership. Other bonds are subject to interest rate risk if sold before maturity, meaning their values change with changes in general interest rates (if rates rise, then existing bonds drop in value).
Funds come in several types, the most conservative being money market funds, the most aggressive (and dangerous) being sector funds, which invest in stocks in just one particular industry.
