There are several ways to get 6% to 7% returns.
The best way, in my opinion, is through a investment strategy known as DRIP Plans. Studies show that these plans consistently return double-digits over the long-term.

yup, but not in the US. Time deposits it Philippine banks offer as much as 7% per anum. Philippine Savings Bank (or PS Bank) offers such yields for time-deposits. That bank is one of the largest and most stable in the Philippines, so your money will be safe with them. The only problem is it overseas, but hey, The Phil peso is one of the strongest in asia, so apart from interest gain, you can also earn through foreign exchange gains
best of luck
That is actually quite low return! For high safe interest rate returns of 7.64% on South African Rand Certificate of Deposit or 12.14% on Icelandic Krona Certificate of Deposit both with $10,000 minimum deposits go to:

Bear Stearns prefered stock BSC-X yields 7.8%. Watch out for high inflation cropping up; this pref. stock could tumble.
There are stocks like EPD and ETP that yield around 6.5%. They are MLPs that require special tax documents. Bank of America (BAC) stock has a similar yield too, but many don't think it is safe here (I do).
And if you don't mind some risk, there is ACAS that yields 12.5%. It also has a annual div. growth rate of 7 to 11%.

If surrounded by a daylight everybody wishes to market a specific stocks and nobody requests to buy that specific stocks?
Then what would happen?I see everyday society can sell thier stock short waiting for someone to buy it and I can understand it.
Answers: Every stock have a "specialist" or "market maker" whose available job is to hold a large position contained by that stock and ensure that trading is orderly. If it's just a short permanent status imbalance between buyers and seller, the market maker's available job is to step in and buy or get rid of the shares for which there are currently no buyers or seller (as the case may be). If there's a serious disparity, then the bazaar maker will set a price that reflect the market constraint or lack thereof. If the price is low satisfactory, there's always a buyer.
Large companies next to millions of shares traded every day other have plenty of buyers or seller. But for small companies with single a few thousand shares traded, a shortage of buyers or sellers will basis drastic swings in price. That's incompletely why small companies are more risky. You might not always find a buyer at a celebration price when you want to sell.
That's a virtuous question. If you're literally asking what would evolve if there be absolutely no buyers (only sellers), next I think the stock would plummet. However, unless you're dealing beside a stock that has extremely low volume, in attendance are usually buyers. Don't forget, even when some traders short the stock, they still have to cover (which money they're buying it). So there's always a buyer!
