You could do a short term CD. But with today's rates, you'll get next nothing in 6 months.

Find a high dividend stock (one with at least quarterly payments)

I'm assuming the full amount is due in 6 months, so this is bad advice.

A risk for sure, but 6 months is not a long time

Either a 6 month CD if you're risk averse or a 70/30 stock/bond portfolio.

70/30 for a six month time period?! LOL

Probably try to move it offshore through a Nigerian prince.

If I had $4 mil to "sit on", I would make sure to deposit it

This is one thing TNT has always wondered

Go out to wendover, find the BJ table that "Trixie" is dealing at

don't leave it all in one checking account. FDIC only insures it up to $250,000.
