NON traded REITs that invest in class A office space (no strip malls, vacation property...) . I have three of these and they pay 6, 6.5 and 7.5. There are also bond funds out there that are paying 7%. She can take the interest without having to sell any shares. Sure, the share price will move up and down (I'd say up over the long haul) but as long as it's the income she is after the fluctuation in the share price is meaningless. You can get 7% without having to look to the stock market or taking on an extreme amount of risk.
