If you're looking for low risk, you're gotta top out at likely.... oh say..... 6% or so. After you take taxes out of your earnings and inflation (say 3%/year) takes a bite, you're not making much at all.
Let me suggest another course of action.
Pay this $ down on some bills. Pay it toward your mortgage, car note, flashlight-induced credit card bills, etc.
Likely ANY of these above bills are a good bit above the return you will get, given your acceptable level of risk.
