What kind of stock/bond/investment has the lowest risk and makes the most money?

It depends on how long you intend to leave it invested and how much you have to invest. Bank CD's which have no risk have different rates depending on amount and length of deposit. Govt. bonds have no risk but require a large purchase price unless you buy them through a Bond Fund where you can make smaller purchases. Corp.bonds can pay higher rates but can be more risky. The best idea is to check with a financial advisor which most banks have now. There is no cost unless you do make a purchase through them and then normal brokerage fees apply.
The higher the risk the more potential return on your investment but also the higher the risk of losing your investment.

None. Risk and reward go hand in hand. The higher the potential return, the higher the risk. "There ain't no free lunch."

Mutual Funds are pretty good.
With some you get dividends, good long term investments.

I have some Fidelity funds in my 401K.

Still, no free lunch!

bonds pay a steady rate and don't have much risk but no rocket increase either. stock? they are riskier as they flucuate on news and things. if you are asking where to put your money then open a practice account somewhere and try and make money before ricking yours. do the research and learn and earn

There is no such thing. HIgher return means higher risk.
