I've got $100k in cash from some property sell-offs just sitting in some cd's and I want to put it into something higher earning. What should I be looking at that can earn me a good return?

How long do you plan to invest it? If you don't intend to spend it for a while just put it in an index fund or buy a shite ton of XOM or CVX.

It's extra cash just sitting around that I don't need to do anything with.

This isn't very good advice . Well at least not with all that money.

well i guess don't put all of it into those. But with the prices where they are right now, with dividends reinvested over 3-5 years, you could make a solid return.

Just put it on a few solid balanced funds and relax.

It's really impossible to say without knowing more about your financial situation. Such as, how old are you, are your retirement goals already being met or not, your risk profile, etc.

For example, if you really need to do some catching up on funding your retirement you should invest it all. If you are deep in credit card debt then you should pay it off. If you're already filthy rich then by all means go to the local strip club's VIP room and you'll be able to stick "it" in something that night.

Do you have an IRA? If not, open one up, max it out, then put the rest in an index fund or something.

If you don't have any investment accounts go open one up at some investment firm

^^^This.

Simply not enough information to give a good or meaningful answer.

Also, it sounds like the OP has some real estate experience. How extensive is that? Does he have any small business experience or aspirations? What sort of knowledge does he have of the equity and debt markets?

$100K is enough to give him some decent, diversified investment options. But what is appropriate for him? Dunno.
