Done a bunch of things over my life, made some, lost some.
If I had it all back I would put it into Canadian bank stocks.
They pay a decent dividend and they appreciate.
RBC 1995 price was $31 current price $108 dipped as low as $36 in 2008 but paid 4% dividends all the way through with negligible risk.
So $1000 investment in 1995 would be worth $3500 today and would have paid approx $2880 in dividends over that period as well.
Boring as heck but...
If you need a little flutter you can always sell covered calls
