Each one would work different. There is not one way they all work. There are some I would avoid.
First lending as it is really hard to get the money back if they default, I suggest staying clear of it. Second one that just jumped out to me was
Casino Investment. I would also avoid casinos in general as a investment. Just not enough regulation.
I'm sure there are more that are ones I don't agree with, but everyone has different factors they want. I would make sure before any of them to do your own research. I strongly push for new people to do research before investing.
Good opinions, but every investment can be safe if you risk little amounts.
I would certainly not put all my savings in a mining contract or similar.
